Editor's Take
The Complete Book of Food Counts, 9th Edition appears to be a well-liked reference for quick nutrition lookups, especially for carbs, calories, protein, sodium, cholesterol, and fiber. Amazon reviewers describe it as thorough, comprehensive, helpful, valuable, and informative, and one review snippet says it helps with online food charts.
There are also some consistent complaints. Reviewers mention that the print is too small, the book can feel cumbersome, and it may take too long to find entries. Opinions are mixed on readability and value for money, with some readers calling it a good find and others disappointed.
Target’s product page shows a small number of ratings, suggesting limited newer retail review volume outside Amazon. Goodreads also has a small community review set for the broader title, reinforcing that this is a niche reference book rather than a heavily discussed consumer product.
YouTube: no real YouTube watch URLs were found in the available search results, so there are no verified video IDs to return.
