Whether you are a lifelong vegetarian, transitioning to a plant-based diet, or shopping for a friend, IngrediCheck takes the guesswork out of the grocery aisle. HOW IT WORKS 1. Scan the Barcode: Get instant data on millions of products via our global food database. 2. Scan the Label (OCR): Product doesn't have a barcode? No problem.
