Hi,
I was reading I believe fitness magazine and came across an phone app. Called " Fooducate ". Free on iTunes. You scan your store bought barcode and it will tell you what is healthy and unhealthy about the product. It will give it a letter grade and then give you better alternatives. It is awesome. I found out one of my favorite yogurt has a preservative that companies make bug killer with and a favorite fish is not so healthy. A lot of the alternatives were not available in my area but I kept scanning until I found a suitable dish.
Let me know what you think. I probably looked weird scanning packages with my phone.
