General information only
The content on The Candid RD is general information about food and nutrition. It is not medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. It does not replace advice from a registered dietitian or doctor who knows your health.
If you have a medical condition, a food allergy or intolerance, are pregnant, or take medicine, speak to a qualified professional before you change what you eat. Never ignore professional advice because of something you read here. If you think you have a medical emergency, call your local emergency number.
Nutrition and recipe information
Calories and other nutrition figures are estimates. They can differ with brands, portion sizes and cooking methods. Where a restaurant publishes its own nutrition data, we link to it and use it. Check the official source if the number matters for your health.
Menu prices and availability
Restaurant prices, sizes and menu items vary by location and change over time. Our menu guides show a “last checked” date for prices and name the source. The price on the day you visit may be different. Confirm it with the restaurant, its website or its app before you order.
No affiliation with restaurants or brands
We are not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any restaurant or food brand we write about, unless a page says so. All brand names, logos and trademarks belong to their owners. We use them only to say which company a menu or product belongs to.
Older articles
Articles written by Gina, the registered dietitian who started this site, keep her name and their original dates. Nutrition guidance changes, so an older article may not match current advice. Where we have rechecked or updated a page, the date on it says so.
Affiliate and sponsored content
Ads appear on this site. If we publish sponsored content, it is labelled as sponsored. If we use affiliate links, we mark them on the page, and we may earn a commission if you buy through them, at no extra cost to you. Payment never changes what we say about a food or a restaurant.
Links to other sites
We link to restaurant sites, government sources and research. We do not control those sites and do not accept responsibility for their content.
