Nut Dat Viewer

This simple viewer will conduct a search (Cmd-S) in the relational USDA nutrient database provided, then launch your preferred web browser to display results. By default, this is Netscape Communicator. E.g., you may either search for 3persimmon2, or look up the specific NDB No. 3092652. An NDB No. lookup reports the complete nutrient description for that one item. Leading zeroes are significant. A search for 3macaroni and cheese2 reports calories only for all hits containing both 3cheese2 and 3macaroni2 in any order. The search algorithm is extremely naive, but it does try to do some simple fixups, e.g., finding both 3raspberry2 and 3raspberries2 in the same search. Requirements: Macintosh PowerPC only, at least OS 7.0. Until OS X graduates from sophomore status, no effort will be expended to make this simple utility compatible.
