[1] Refuse, oil.
[2] Refuse, shell.
[3] Plain confectionery not containing nuts, fruit, or chocolate.
[4] Such vegetables as potatoes, squash, beets, etc., have a certain
amount of inedible material, skin, seeds, etc. The amount varies with
the method of preparing the vegetables, and cannot be accurately
estimated. The figures given for refuse of vegetables, fruits, etc.,
are assumed to represent approximately the amount of refuse in these
foods as ordinarily prepared.
[5] Fruits contain a certain proportion of inedible materials, as
skins, seeds, etc., which are properly classed as refuse. In some
fruits, as oranges and prunes, the amount rejected in eating is
practically the same as refuse. In others, as apples and pears, more or
less of the edible material is ordinarily rejected with the skin and
seeds and other inedible portions. The edible material which is thus
thrown away, and should properly be classed with the waste, is here
classed with the refuse. The figures for refuse here given represent,
as nearly as can be ascertained, the quantities ordinarily rejected.
[6] Milk and shell.
[7] The average of five analyses of cereal coffee grain is: Water
6.2, protein 13.3, fat 3.4, carbohydrates 72.6, and ash 4.5 per cent.
Only a portion of the nutrients, however, enter into the infusion.
The average in the table represents the available nutrients in the
beverage. Infusions of genuine coffee and of tea like the above contain
practically no nutrients.
