Options!

Doesn’t just say good or bad for you-aka Bobby Approved- DirtyPanda actually tells you from Great choice or warns for certain ingredients, as well as it shows you better options!

Great app, but there’s not much purpose for it

What this does is it scans the QR code and reads the ingredients for you instead of you having to just read it on the box and although it doesn’t really make sense cause I can just read it on the back instead of having to pay a monthly plan, but it is useful because when I would read it, I would look at the ingredients and think that they’re OK but with this app it puts it in big red bulk and it makes me know that this is bad and Potentially dangerous for my body it helped me eat a lot healthier, and know what to eat and what not to eat

Great App

Knowing what’s in the food you buy is a smart thing to do, and this App is as good as you can ask for.,

I’ve shared this app with at least 10 others who’ve found it very useful

Great

I really like the fact that it gives you scientifically proven information in each food that can be unhealthy and affective.
