USDA FDC SR Legacy record 175040. USDA carries no food record for ammonium bicarbonate, since it is an inorganic leavening salt rather than a food. This cites its record for bicarbonate of soda, another inert leavening salt, to establish that the value is genuinely zero rather than unmeasured; ammonium bicarbonate itself contributes no food energy or macronutrients and decomposes fully into gas on baking. Density estimated from the salt-fine class.
