Abstract: The Child Nutrition Database is designed to provide an accurate source of nutrient data, allowing schools to analyze the meals served for the Child Nutrition Programs, including National School Lunch, School Breakfast, Summer Food Service, and Child and Adult Care Food Programs. Implementation of Nutrient Standard Menu Planning (NSMP) is dependent upon the school or school food authority's ability to analyze the nutrient content of foods. Therefore, USDA requires that the CN Database be incorporated into all approved school food service software systems used for menu and recipe analysis under NSMP. Under this collection, manufacturers voluntarily submit nutritional information about brand name commercially processed foods to be included in the Child Nutrition Database.
