CarbTable — Food Carb Lookup

Highlight food references on a page and check carbohydrates, fiber and calories locally with CarbTable.

Reading a recipe and wondering how many carbs are in the brown rice, the oats or the banana? CarbTable answers right on the page. It highlights the foods mentioned in the recipe or article you are reading and shows reference values for carbohydrate, dietary fiber and energy, without opening another tab or sending the page anywhere. WHY INSTALL CARBTABLE • No more copying ingredients into a search engine: the numbers appear next to the text you are reading. • Portions you actually use: switch between per 100 g and household measures such as "1 cup" or "1 medium", with the grams always shown. • Clear sources: every value comes from a specific USDA FoodData Central record, which you can open from the card. • No guessing: when a word could mean several foods or preparations (raw or cooked, canned or dried), CarbTable asks you to choose before showing any numbers. • Private by design: everything runs on your device. No account, no analytics, no ads. • Works offline: the food catalogue and its illustrations are built in. HOW IT WORKS 1. Open a recipe or article and click the CarbTable button in the toolbar. 2. Choose "Highlight foods". Recognised foods are highlighted in the text, and a sidebar lists every food found on the page. 3. Point to or click a highlight, or pick a food in the sidebar, to see its carbohydrate, fiber and energy. 4. Choose a reference amount to see the values for that portion. 5. Fold the sidebar to get the full page back, or clear the highlights when you are done. You can also search hundreds of foods from the toolbar popup on any page, including pages where highlighting is not available. WHERE THE NUMBERS COME FROM Each food links to one USDA FoodData Central record for that specific food and preparation. Values are references for that food. They are not a calculation of the recipe you are reading, and they are not medical or dietary advice. Your ingredients, brands and cooking methods may differ. YOUR PRIVACY • CarbTable reads a page only after you click its button and choose "Highlight foods" on that tab. It has no access to other tabs or websites. • Matching and calculations run on your device. Page text, page addresses, browsing history and the foods you open are never sent to a server. • The sidebar is isolated from the page, so the website you are reading cannot see which food you open. • At most once a day, CarbTable checks carbtable.com for an updated food catalogue. The request carries no cookies, no page content and no identifier, and each update is verified before use. Privacy policy: https://carbtable.com/privacy/#chrome-extension GOOD TO KNOW CarbTable is in beta and currently in English. Highlighting works on regular web pages. It does not read PDFs, embedded frames, text inside images or Chrome's internal pages. Questions, missing foods or a value that looks wrong?
