Your local, friendly super-power federal government of course!

Some vegan or vegetarian or somesuch stuck the USDA database into a
Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.  But I can't find it on the internet

Furthermore, I have fairly good conversion software and might be able to
get it to work on other formats.

There ya go, straight off some home mac.
