CalorieKing
Verified working Oct 3, 2026
Nutrition lookup and calorie tracking built around branded foods.
CalorieKing is a food nutrition database with searchable entries for common brands, restaurant items, and everyday foods. It also offers a free calorie counter, exercise journal, health calculators, mobile apps, books, and licensed nutrition data for developers.
Why it stands out
- Strong coverage of branded foods and fast-food restaurant items, not just generic ingredients.
- Combines consumer food lookup with developer access to the same nutrition database.
- Offers both web-based tracking and portable reference options through apps and books.
- Includes practical weight-management tools alongside nutrition facts, such as calorie-needs and heart-rate calculators.
Good to know
- The site is centered on calorie and nutrient lookup, not personalized medical nutrition advice.
- Database coverage may vary by region or language selection.
- Full offline database use is handled through a separate developer data license, not the basic web counter.
Under the radar: If a search result looks incomplete, try browsing by brand or switching the region/language selector before assuming the food is not listed.
