App that scans barcodes is awesome!

Between the app that scans barcodes, and saving my dinners as one meal for next time, I can't believe how efficient this has become to log everything! Searching for my exact thing, like my hamburger patty, or the bun, etc, can take forever... quick scan with my phone and it has the exact one with all the stats

Learned I was underestimating my hamburger by almost 300 calories! Because I used what I thought was close enough for ingredients....

Just sharing!!

Thanks for reminding me. I've been here for ages and never tried it yet.

The barcode scanner does rock, except when occasionally it comes up empty and you have to search anyway. That's often the result of scanning a barcode from an item which was purchased in a box. The box's barcode will often come up, but the barcode on the individual items will not.

I just got a smarter than me phone and it has the barcode thing so I can log more of my foods. Wow!! I love it and almost scan everything now, even if I have already entered it in on my own.
