The form here is the concentrated one, and that matters for reading the table: dehydration and grinding reduce water weight, so oxalate per standard serving rises relative to the fresh version of the same base food. Oregano Herbs and Spices lands at 8 mg per serving, in the middle of the family range across the family's measured range. Related forms in this family: Chili Powder Herbs and Spices (8 mg), Savory Herbs and Spices (Savory 2) (8 mg), Herbs and Spices, Pepper, Red, Cayenne (6 mg).

Spices are the one food family where serving size dominates the oxalate question completely. At a gram or two per teaspoon, the difference between spice entries matters less than how often the jar comes out of the cupboard โ€” a daily-seasoning spice and a holiday-only spice are different exposure categories even at similar per-serving numbers. Oregano Herbs and Spices measures 8 mg per teaspoon serving. Nearby entries in this category: Chili Powder Herbs and Spices (8 mg), Savory Herbs and Spices (Savory 2) (8 mg), Vanilla Wafers Cookies (7 mg).
