    So basically it reads the label for you?

    The app goes into more detail and breaks down the ingredients that you may not understand. It also gives you healthier alternatives. Its more of a tool to help educate you. Makes you really think about what you're eating.

    But nice sarcastic rude quip.



    You realize you just gave the definition of reading, right?


    Just because you read something does not mean you understand it. The app helps with confusing ingredients that you may not know are unhealthy. I think this app is helpful for when I am at the grocery store and want to quickly see what exactly is in a product and to see if its worth buying

    I'm off to add 100+ languages I can 'read' to my resume.

    Wow. This merely summarizes the nutrition label for you and lists pros and cons at a glance. It's actually much faster than reading labels and will make you aware of some potentially harmful lesser known substances in the ingredients list. I don't put much weight into the "grade" the item is given, but if the app suggests a healthier option, I may check into it by COMPARING labels of the two "like items", (I actually process the findings myself, using my BRAIN.). It's a gadget, not a textbook.

    Oh, I get it. You separate reading from comprehension. To me, these skills are one and the same, but I guess that's just my personal preference.

    I know all the words in a calculus textbook, doesn't mean I understand them when put in that order.

    Do we really have to start getting snotty with each other about this?

    Edit to say,y particular issue with this app is I don't want someone whom I don't know to tell me what THEY believe is healthy. I prefer to educate myself, simply because a goodly proportion of diet "fact" is complete BS.
