I am trying to move away from canned and frozen vegetables and into steaming them. I have found humongous variations in nutritional information shown online and on MFP. Can anyone suggest a reliable site where I can find accurate nutritional values for vegetables?

My go to is http://nutritiondata.self.com/ You can get info on various serving sizes but I tend to default to using the 100g data when I enter it into My Foods since I weigh everything. That was I can either do fractions of 100 or even set serving size to 1g and just enter the exact grams. Make sure to check all the categories below, you can et every piece of info on mineral content and all nutrients to be entered into the database (and even lots that aren't in MFP like fructose and glucose info).0

Thanks. I found that site just before posting. The info it gave me was different than I had found elsewhere which was why I posted in the first place. It is nice to know what others are using.0
