% Daily Value is how much 100 g contributes to the FDA Daily Values for adults and children 4 years and older, the figures on US nutrition labels; a dash means there is no Daily Value for that nutrient. "Not reported" means USDA has no measurement for this food, not that it contains none.

How Jalapeno Pepper fits common diet targets

Net carbs

per 100 g
Protein per 100 kcal
Energy density

very low
  • Net carbs are total carbohydrate minus fiber: 6.5 g − 2.8 g = 3.7 g per 100 g. Low-carb plans usually count these.
  • Protein per 100 kcal compares how much protein each food gives for the same calories: Jalapeno Pepper gives 3.1 g.
  • Energy density is calories per gram. At 0.29 kcal/g, Jalapeno Pepper is very low on the CDC's scale (very low below 0.6, low to 1.5, medium to 4, high above 4); lower-density foods give a larger portion for the same calories.

Logging Jalapeno Pepper: what to know

These values cover the raw pod, so weigh it after the stem has been cut off. One pepper is 14 g, and a few rings on a taco barely register at 29 kcal per 100 g. Pickled and canned jalapenos are different foods with added salt, whereas this raw row shows only 3 mg of sodium.
