I am allergic to soy, Kiwi, and all artificial sweeteners. I don't want separate apps to find out if the food i am buying has one of these products in them. Soy is the worst to find on a label. Apparently, sweeteners can be listed as their chemical name. Kiwi is used as a sweetener as well. Their chat said i could add it, but there is no place to add. I didn't want to buy if I couldn't add the missing products. no free trial.

It's a unique one-of-its-kind app specially designed to allow me to check whether a food item which I consume is actually really safe for me or not, regardless of what their marketing may want me to believe.
