First, let's take a look at the macros. Each of these are listed in grams and as usual, normalized to 200 calories for easy comparison, so we're always comparing apples to apples.

| Monounsat. Fat | 8g | 1g |
| Polyunsat. Fat | 5g | 1g |
| Saturated Fat | 4g | 0g |
Next, let's take a look at the Vitamin density. These values are shown in units of percent of recommended daily intake. And since we're showing 200 calories worth, this means anything above 10% is good.
| Nutrient | peanut butter | tuna |
| Choline | 5% | 12% |
| Vitamin A | 0% | 5% |
| Vitamin C | 0% | 0% |
| Vitamin E | 25% | 5% |
| Vitamin K | 0% | 0% |

And here we see the B-vitamins: B1 (Thiamin), B2 (Riboflavin), B3 (Niacin), B5 (Pantothenic Acid), B6 (Pyridoxine)
| Nutrient | peanut butter | tuna |
| Vitamin B1 | 3% | 6% |

| Vitamin B5 | 7% | 7% |
| Vitamin B6 | 17% | 55% |
| Vitamin B12 | 0% | 258% |
Now, lets look at mineral density. Here we have a lot of important electrolytes and minerals. Once again, units are in percent of RDI, thus for this 200 calorie serving anything above 10% would considered high.
| Nutrient | peanut butter | tuna |
| Sodium | 10% | 39% |
| Potasium | 6% | 12% |
| Calcium | 3% | 4% |
