What about the vitamin & mineral content?
Having carbs/fat/protein/calories seems to be more focused on people avoiding getting too much of "bad" stuff, as opposed to ensuring they do get proper nutrition in terms of "good" stuff.
However, the interface would seem to get pretty cluttered if it was a more complete nutritional profile.

Clicking the icon should pin the same info open into content to allow a quick comparison, but there proly should be a sep. comparison interface later on.
- gusgordon 11y agoYes, I want to include that. There are a couple problems — incomplete nutrition profiles for certain foods, and slightly different foods having very different micronutrients (vitamins and minerals). For example, while a homemade cheeseburger and a cheeseburger from McDonald's have very similar macronutrients, they may have completely different micronutrients. That said, general guidelines can still be given. It's important to remember that, in general, the amount of calories consumed matters the most. Other information is important too, though.
