@macbric Actually there is no clear database. We used this table to Australian government https://www.foodstandards.gov.au... And some info from wikipedia.

Great idea. Couldn't you do it using the barcode?

@ben_patton1 Nope, not really. We just make OCR and search for E codes based on numbers.

I'm curious about your app because some powerful app like Yuka or Foodvisor do the same and more, but maybe it's only available in my country (France), if not I don't get your strengh :/

@drdou Yuka does not have an OCR of ingredient list. You have to scan the barcode and it only works if they have the barcode in their database, so it is limited.

@drdou @macbric We don't use barcode. We make OCR of additives CODES 202, 1451, etc

@macbric Yes, I see. The ingredients terms doesn't change like a barcode. So, once you get them in every language, you get technically every product in the world. The point is, the list needs to be really clean compared to a simple barcode, this is the only "con"
