I've been using this product in the Original Book 20 Yrs + APP really Great! Names or Nbs to check, has 1 or 2 Smilies for Good or Very Good, and Grumpies for Bad or Very Bad, Neutral Face for OK. Convenient for Quick Glance OR More INFO. Should add MSG (not just full name & 621)

Just paid for and downloaded this app and the first list of ingredients I have gone to look up and half of them aren't even listed ... ??? The list appears to be pretty light on for and you have no way of knowing what the app contains til you get it... Disappointed

Hi Katie Thanks for your feedback. Depending on the product type (food, cosmetic), manufacturers can list ingredients by multiple names eg. avobenzone in sunscreen has at least 9 synonyms. We typically list only the most common covering about 80% of products. Pls email team@chemicalmaze.com with your ingredients & we'll happily send an evaluation.

Brilliant. So informative. Would be handy if Oats & Barley was one of the dietary options as only Wheat & Gluten are. Other than that, I'm impressed with the App. The E number table is so good & within an hour of using the Ap & looking at 18 numbers from a store bought cake that my child ate which subsequently gave him stomach pains, I have 6 E numbers I'm going to eliminate from anything I buy in the future.
