Your body makes most of the cholesterol it needs. Dietary cholesterol does reach your bloodstream, but how much depends on your gut bacteria, genes, and what else you eat alongside it. This ranking shows the raw amount per 100 g; not how much will actually enter your blood.
Cholesterol lives almost entirely in animal tissues: meat, organ meats, eggs, and dairy. Plant foods contain none. When you read this ranking, remember that no single food determines your blood cholesterol. Your overall diet pattern, body weight, and genetics matter far more.
