How this compares with published guidance
Under 200 mg At 8 mg potassium per serving, this is under the 200 mg line that the National Kidney Foundation (Potassium in Your CKD Diet, updated May 5, 2023) uses for its comparison "low" column.
The 200 mg line applies to a serving, and the serving here is the USDA household portion listed above, which may not match the serving size used on other lists. NKF gives no daily potassium target. Your own limit comes from your care team.
Phosphorus. NKF (Phosphorus and Your CKD Diet) gives no per-serving cutoff, so no label is applied to 5 mg. See where it sits on the phosphorus ranking.
Processed or packaged item. Products of this kind can differ from this USDA reference value, and phosphorus additives may add phosphorus that a generic value does not show. NKF says additive phosphorus is completely absorbed and advises checking ingredient lists for additives with "phos" in the name. Check the label of the product you buy.
