Wow, how did I not know this website existed?!?? I was looking up fast food ingredients for my daughter, who is allergic to soy protein, and to my amazement, discovered this site that catalogues ingredients for all types of foods, and even warns about additives and rates according to healthfulness. Great, user-friendly website!!!

Hi,

I wonder if it is new I found this website yesterday. I was at a cookout looking at ingredients added to a dip.

According to the website copyright information, it's been around for about 10 years. I've seen it before, but not since I've been so restricted in what I can eat.

Thanks, Zizzle!!

It looks like they've got an IPhone app but the reviews on it look pretty dismal. :sad:
