Ratings and reviews

Useful & not, for soy allergy... I am hypersensitive to traces of soy & found myself regularly searching ingredients & derivation of everything edible, so I hoped this app might cut down time spent on that, however it only contains a half dozen soy additives - I know that there are around 260 listed as soy additives on other pages, however this app only has half a dozen.... (There are many more because soy can be used in manufacturing processes & not be overtly declared IE "Manufactured without"

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)

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.
