% 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 Tangerine fits common diet targets

Net carbs
11.5g
per 100 g
Protein per 100 kcal
Energy density

very low
  • Net carbs are total carbohydrate minus fiber: 13.3 g − 1.8 g = 11.5 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: Tangerine gives 1.5 g.
  • Energy density is calories per gram. At 0.53 kcal/g, Tangerine 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 Tangerine: what to know

Tangerines peel easily, and these values are for the segments, not the peel. One medium tangerine is 88 g and 47 kcal, and a bag of them is easy to eat without counting. Of the 13.3 g of carbohydrate per 100 g in a tangerine, 10.6 g are sugars, and the orange entry shows 9.4 g.
