You could try getting information about the food's ingredients from usda... whatever you canned your food with, just sort of estimate. It's a start anyway. Better than nothing ;) Good luck to you and your family!

I didn't realize mayo had sugar - I never really thought I had to read more than the nutritional label...shows how trusting I am. Ah well, lesson learned! I hate that I can't find gum with 0 carbs!
