Polyunsat. Fat | 0g | 1g |

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 | white beans | white mushrooms |
Choline | 12% | 36% |
Vitamin A | 0% | 0% |
Vitamin C | 0% | 25% |
Vitamin E | 11% | 1% |

And here we see the B-vitamins: B1 (Thiamin), B2 (Riboflavin), B3 (Niacin), B5 (Pantothenic Acid), B6 (Pyridoxine)
Nutrient | white beans | white mushrooms |
Vitamin B1 | 17% | 74% |

Vitamin B6 | 12% | 86% |
Vitamin B12 | 0% | 18% |

Nutrient | white beans | white mushrooms |
Sodium | 1% | 3% |
Potasium | 23% | 83% |
