Use the nutrition information for the market where you are ordering. A familiar restaurant name does not make portion sizes, standard ingredients or nutrient figures globally interchangeable. GetMacros’ U.S. records should remain labeled as U.S. data.
Match the record before comparing
Look for the country or region, the exact item name, serving size and included components. A similar menu title in another country may describe another build. Copying its calories into the U.S. record would hide that difference rather than resolve it.
Source dates matter too
A newer page from another market is not automatically a better source for the old market. Check that the menu version and geographic scope both match. If a source does not state a publication date, keep that date unavailable and record when you consulted it separately.
What to do when the market is unsupported
Use the restaurant’s local official information for your order. You can compare those documented values yourself, but do not assume a GetMacros shortlist certifies the local meal. A shared filter link should retain its underlying dataset scope rather than suggesting worldwide coverage.
FDA’s menu-labeling guidance is U.S.-specific context, not a global menu standard. This article introduces no cross-market nutrition claims and quotes no restaurant values. The practical rule is to keep brand, market and serving together whenever a number travels from a source to a result.
