So, I have been trying to make sure I get enough Potassium in my diet and I have consistently been coming up way short. Part of this was because the label information on Jenny Craig's cuisine does not have Potassium listed on it anywhere, and it isn't readily available online. I contacted Jenny Craig asking for Potassium amounts and received an e-mail in response, so I've taken the values they sent and modified all of the Jenny Craig menu items with their Potassium values, per Jenny Craig themselves. You can find the entries are now differentiated with a "(w/potassium)" or "(incl. Potassium)" after their names (I changed my mind on how to write it, after about 6-7 items). I noted one weird discrepancy, they had the chocolate cakes listed twice but I went back and updated with the lesser of the two values.

Hope this helps the Jenny Craig users in the community, when trying to track their Potassium intake!

Here's the e-mail:
