Good Idea
This app is really great because it includes information on products that contain corn. Since corn is not one of the allergies recognized by the FDA this app is really helpful. I have corn allergies and was surprised when I typed the words "corn allergy" in the search field and it gave me a robust list of ingredient that contain corn. Thanks!!
Learning a lot
Kudos! Lots of information here. I really like the food label terms category because it tells you what some of these terms really mean. Overall this is a great app. for those who want to take charge of what they are eating.
Very Simple Very Useful
There is so much information out there about food ingredients that it is hard for me to remember all this information. This app. is really handy when you go to the store because it contains a lot of that information. Really like the section on Food and Drug Interaction and Food Label Terms, these were eye openers for me.
