Calorieking books are popular and I'm glad that they have been produced. I think it's a good product and brand. It's not the best though. I found that some of the information that I was looking for is missing from this volume, specifically net carb info. I have found other books and phone apps that fit my needs better.
Once you get the hang of the book, it's easy to find most foods. I received this book through a Prevent Diabetes program, and we use it primarily to look up fat grams of the foods we record in our food trackers. The guide does also have calories and carbohydrate information noted (same tables as the fat). There is a separate sodium guide at the back of the book. Love having the index at the back to look up which page to go to.
This book appears to be updated every year or two.

A wonderful guide for Type I Juvenile diabetes to use when eating at restaurants.
Very useful book for tracking and finding Calorie, Fat, and Carb counts of many common foods especially fast food joints and other chain restaurants. They also have a website http://www.calorieking.com/ which has all the most up-to-date information.
