📊 Nutrition at a Glance
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. Tarragon Herbs and Spices (Tarragon) lands at 2 mg per serving, in the middle of the family range across the family's measured range. Related forms in this family: Seasoning Blend Herbs and Spices (2 mg), Tarragon Herbs and Spices (Tarragon 2) (2 mg), Saffron Herbs and Spices (2 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 — a daily-seasoning spice and a holiday-only spice are different exposure categories even at similar per-serving numbers. Tarragon Herbs and Spices (Tarragon) measures 2 mg per teaspoon serving. Nearby entries in this category: Marjoram Herbs and Spices (2 mg), Onion Powder Herbs and Spices (2 mg), Pasilla Chili Herbs and Spices (2 mg).
