| Polyunsat. Fat | 0g | 0g |
| Saturated Fat | 0g | 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 | tortilla | potato |
| Choline | 0% | 7% |
| Vitamin A | 0% | 0% |
| Vitamin C | 0% | 68% |
| Vitamin E | 1% | 0% |
