# Tally each ingredient's benefit as it drops in

A food and nutrition format, measured November 8, 2026 by Volume. https://tryvolume.app/working/food-and-nutrition/tally-each-ingredient-s-benefit-as-it-drops-in

As each ingredient goes in, put its nutrient count or function on screen or say it aloud. It worked for 4 accounts, with a median of 9x their usual reach. Type: Editing trick. Seen as: Talking head, Video, Voiceover.

## Why it works

Viewers get a reason for every ingredient and a running total to wait for. The format worked on desserts, salads and juices across accounts.

## How to make it

1. Open with a stat or goal such as fiber, longevity or a trend name
2. Add one ingredient at a time
3. Overlay or say its benefit or count
4. Finish with the total or the finished plate

## Hook formula

Every ingredient in this [dish] has a purpose

## How this is measured

- Every post is compared with its own account's usual reach, not with other accounts. "14x their usual" means the post got 14 times the median views of that account's recent posts.
- TikTok videos and Instagram Reels are measured on views. Instagram carousels have no view count, so they are measured on likes against the account's usual likes, and say so.
- A post makes the library at 2x its account's usual or more. A format is a repeatable move (what is said or shown, or how it is edited) that several accounts used in breakout posts. It is listed here once it worked for 3 or more different accounts.
- Formats rank on how many accounts they worked for and how far above usual, damped so a fluke on one tiny account cannot outrank a format that worked for ten.
