April 8, 2010
Mello Apps Limited has released a new iPhone application that finally reveals the source of obscurely named food additives, such as E542 and E504. The application Vegetarian Scanner allows users to snap a picture of a food label with their phone camera and scan the photo for key food additives. The application lists the additives and if they are vegetarian, animal-derived, or variable. Users can also search food additives using the keypad, or peruse the application’s database for the vegetarian status of ingredients. The application costs $1.99. The scanner requires an iPhone 3GS, but iPod Touch, iPad, and iPhone 2G and 3G users can use the database.
