title: 'Recipe', a computer program for calculating the nutrient contents of foods.
abstract: The paper describes a computer program which calculates the amounts of each of 39 nutrients in a food, presented to it as a list of ingredients. Allowances can be made for losses of water and vitamins on cooking. The recipe can be compared with other foods already listed in the food tables. Other comparisons can also be made in terms of percent recommended daily intake. The new food may be retained as an addition to the food tables.
