Describe the icon you'd like to see and how you would use it. Micronutrients like fat, protein and carbohydrates would be useful to indicate the contents of food.

Good suggestion. Do you have any examples @KevinBeckers that would help us? I did a quick google images search and it's not obvious how to represent micronutrients

KevinBeckers commented 3 years ago

Hi, this is a hard question because, usually you need some knowledge to understand the meaning. As far as I know these are the way people represent them:

Carbs (energie, speedometer, grain)
Protein (twisted ribbon, muscle, egg)
Fat (droplet, human fat cell, avocado)
Alcohol (beer bottle, human liver)
Vitamines (capsule, orange)
Minerals (mineral stone, diamond)

Most of the time existing sets are inconstant or incomplete.
