Cool App Sat! - Fooducate

I found this app through my Fitness Magazine and I'm so glad I did. I thought I ate healthy and knew how to read labels. Well, I was WRONG. I love this app because it reads the labels for me and grades each product.
Fooducate App

The first photo below is the opening screen then once I scan the bar code the photo on the right below will appear with a grade and what's the good news and the bad news about the ingredients.  I love the alternatives button that will show me better options too.



The are tough too. Things that I thought would grade an A register's as a C. Mostly because it has too much salt or sugar. When a do scan something that registers an A I really feel like a scored! I literally get a big ole smile on my face like a discovered a gold mine!

Not only does it grade your food it also helps you with a daily meal plan and a weight lost plan. I use this app every time I go grocery shopping. My hubby has the patience of a saint as our shopping time has doubled with me trying to choose the highest score. lol But, it does get easier the more you use the app and it will keep a history for you.



My only complaint... It's not available for my iPad. Happy scanning and happy eating.
