Can I use ground lamb in a Nutrition Facts label calculation?+
Yes. Open the generator with ground lamb added, enter the weight you use, add your other ingredients and the label is calculated from the same USDA record shown here. A label for a product you sell must reflect your actual recipe and finished serving.
Ground Lamb compared with other forms
Different forms of the same food are separate USDA records, so each has its own page. Per 100 g:
Nutrient values are from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy (April 2018 release, public domain), record 172544: "Lamb, ground, cooked, broiled". Values are stored per 100 g exactly as USDA reports them and scaled to each serving by weight. The Nutrition Facts panel applies the FDA rounding rules in 21 CFR 101.9; tables and text show the scaled amounts at reading precision, so a figure can differ slightly from the panel. A nutrient USDA does not report for this food is shown as not reported, never as a guessed value.
SR Legacy predates the added sugars field. This is a whole or unsweetened food, so added sugars are shown as 0 g. View the USDA record ↗
