Why this matters: the gap between two Safe foods can be wide — one may hold 5 mg oxalate while another sits at 24 mg. The lower one leaves more room in your day.

Why does oxalate per 100g matter?
Per-100g values put every food on the same scale, which is handy when serving sizes differ a lot between foods — or when your portion doesn't match the standard serving. It lets you compare apples to apples on oxalate density. For context, Soy Cheese measures 16 mg per 1 oz, rated Safe.
How accurate is the oxalate measurement?
These values come from Harvard's 2024 ion-chromatography analysis — the gold-standard method for oxalate. Real measured data rather than estimates. Sample-to-sample variation exists, but no published source is more dependable for food oxalate. For context, Soy Cheese measures 16 mg per 1 oz, rated Safe.
