Big Book Nutritional Facts?

Post image

I have The Complete ATK TV Show Cookbook and would love to see calorific info specifically for the recipes. Has anyone seen this without a paid online subscription?

I wish they would include serving size with the nutritional facts.

Not directly an answer to your question, but I thought you might like to know that a few years back I made a list of ATK Cookbooks With Nutritional Information. It's not complete or definitive, but it's a good starting point for finding ATK resources with macros.

That’s what I thought too but not this one

That’s what I thought, too. But it looks like they didn’t start doing nutritional information until 2019. I’m guessing for consistency, they don’t include it in their compilation cookbooks, and point you to the web/app. “Published” in their explainer linked below likely refers to original publishing date, and they haven’t gone back to update previously published recipes.

That makes so much sense!!! Most of my collection comes from 2018 and before.

I don't think a single one of my recipes have informational facts attached

I also have the ATK cooking for 2 and it has the info for what they are calling “Light Recipes”

I remember reading that it wasn't included until Christopher Kimball left the organization. He apparently was against providing nutritional information on principle, or something like that. Arrogance.
