About
Tired of searching food labels for the ingredients you avoid?
Grocery Sidekick makes it easy to find what matters to you. Choose what you want to watch for, from allergens and gluten to seed oils, MSG and alpha-gal. Then scan a barcode and see what Grocery Sidekick finds in seconds.
No food scores. No grades. No judgment. Just a simpler way to check labels for the things you care about.
With Grocery Sidekick you can:
• Watch for milk, eggs, soy, peanuts, tree nuts, sesame, fish, shellfish, gluten, MSG, seed oils, artificial sweeteners, high-fructose corn syrup and alpha-gal (mammal products)
• Choose vegan, vegetarian, or pescatarian preferences
• Scan a barcode and quickly see what matters to you
• See the ingredient or package evidence behind every finding
• Get a note when a label doesn't say where an ingredient comes from
• Tap an ingredient to learn what it is and why it's used
• Find a similar option that fits your preferences
• Set your own limits for sodium, added sugar, saturated fat, carbs, and calories
• Build a shopping list and check items off as you shop
• Save products and revisit previous scans
Alpha-gal support
Watch for mammal meat, fats, broths and gelatin. Grocery Sidekick also tells you when a label doesn't say which animal an ingredient comes from.
Grocery Sidekick shows what a product's ingredient information says. It doesn't certify products as allergen-free or safe to eat.
Your list. Your food. Your preferences. Your Sidekick.
