Love this for prepared meals and home cooked meals, where you need to analyze the ingredients of a dish. Have you considered adding the ability to recognize a standard FDA Nutrition facts label as well? For example if I have a protein bar, it would be great to snap a picture of the label and OCR the macros. I know that differs though from your current tech of a CNN for image analysis, but it would round out the product to cover a greater percent of foods eaten.

It should really reduce the friction of adding new items. At some point we’d like to start recognizing packaged products but we’ll need the data to make it work.
