About this app

🌿 Never get poisoned by cilantro again!

Cilantro Alert is a community-driven app that helps you instantly identify whether food products contain cilantro (also known as coriander). Simply scan a product barcode or search manually — and know immediately if it's safe to eat.

WHY CILANTRO ALERT?
For millions of people, cilantro tastes like soap due to a specific genetic variation. Others simply find the taste unbearable. Either way, cilantro hides in countless products — sauces, ready meals, spice mixes, and more. Cilantro Alert gives you the power to check before you eat.

HOW IT WORKS:
• 📷 Scan — Use your camera to scan any product barcode
• ✅ Check — Instantly see if the product is cilantro-safe or contains cilantro
• 🤝 Contribute — Add new products and help the community grow
