Awesome! I can see hobbyists buying some of these then setting up online review hubs for each city, labelling the quality of produce in each store / farmer's market produce section when they go out on their 'measurement' excursions.

- LyndsySimon 10y ago> nobody really cares what the exact sugar or protein content of their fruits is I disagree here - as someone on a ketogenic diet, the sugar content of food is extremely important to me. Labelling standards are abysmal, too; it's legal to market something as "0g carbohydrates" if there is less than a 0.5g carbs per serving. Considering that serving sizes can be very small, that can be extremely misleading. For instance - a bag of pork rinds may be listed as 0g carbs, even going so far as marketing that fact on the front of the bag, while the third ingredient by weight is sugar. If the bag claims that there are 20 servings, then the only real information you have is that there are less than 10g of carbs in the bag. When you're on a diet that limits you to 20g per day, that's a huge problem.
