Guest guest Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 PS The " personal communication " noted below was not with me but with , MD, who forwarded me the quote. Sorry Jeff >>Weihrauch JL. Nutritionist, United States Department of Agriculture. Personal communication. May 3 1990. " In our publications we report cholesterol to the nearest milligram. Most plant products contain cholesterol in amounts less than one milligram per 100 grams. At this time we have no plans to report cholesterol values in foods of plant origin...cholesterol in plant foods is insignificant when compared to the amounts in foods of animal origin.
