Nutrition Info Websites.........

Does anyone have a good website for Nutrition Info?

Or can you tell me how many calories are in a 4oz. serving of 93% lean Ground Beef. I bought it at the market and was interested in how it compared to the 85% in terms of fat and calories.

Thanks
Lifer

Sorry, I don't have a site that would be that specific.
You might want to check out the fitday.com site to help you. Once you get used to this place it is certainly helpful for keeping a fair amount of track with what you are doing.

Good luck finding that site.

There's a chart at the bottom that gives all the details.

SetzKitten, That is AMAZING!!!

I knew when the butcher at Central Market couldnt answer my question about the nutrit. info I would ask here. That is exactly what I was looking for! How you found it I dont know, but I REALLY appreciate it.

Super Lean: This type of ground beef usually has between 7% and 10% fat content. At 90% or 93% lean beef, it is the leanest ground beef you can buy. This also makes it the most expensive. In my area it is $3.99 lb at most supermarkets, although at a local Warehouse Store (Sam's) it is a more reasonable $1.88 lb. A 4 oz portion of raw super-lean ground beef contains approximately 170 calories, 8g fat, 3g saturated fat and 61 mg cholesterol. Once cooked a pound of super-lean ground beef weighs about 12-2/3 oz. Thus a 4 oz portion of raw super-lean turns into about a standard 3 oz portion, once it is cooked.
