Nutrition charts: Nutritiondata.com

I do so enjoy charts and graphs. Here's a site that generates nifty charts and graphics reflecting the nutritional content of what you eat, like this:

You can generate these charts for a single food or for a meal or for a day. It's become a game for me to try to fill in all the purple and white wedges on the Nutrient Balance Score chart. It turns meal planning into a whole different activity than answering the question "What would be fabulously delicious to eat"; instead I think "What would have a lot of Vitamin D". That's got to be good, right?
