Field notes
The homepage links to Methods, Sources, and “What it means,” and presents live shelves for cooking oils, sweeteners, plant proteins, and grains and potatoes. Each shelf describes specific measures—for example, the carbs guide says it uses glycemic index, derived glycemic load, and USDA composition data. Seafood and meat are marked “Coming soon”; the site says those categories will be kept separate from plant proteins and from each other.
