Wonderful, easy to use & useful!!
easy to use, good variety
Pictures would be really helpful in a "good vs bad"
Great app for getting stuff you have never bought before.
Something I needed. Thankyou. Sparking hearts!
This app provides information on how to buy and handle some of the most common types of produce. It also has a nice selection of recipes and shows you the nutrients. It's a very clean looking app without a lot of clutter...easy to navigate and you can save your favorite produce items. I like how you can also search for produce high in a specific nutrient. I can see myself utilizing this very often.
Would be even better if you could add a math button feature. By that I mean, nutritional value for example asparagus is one spear...would be nice to multiply that with a multiply button. Avocado one whole, would like to devide once, twice, thirds and quarters. Or simply give that info on next page. Also in oz. for odd measurements , 0.5 cup of blackberries isn't easy to interpret but oz are. Than it would be perfect!
Absolutely love this app! Features are amazing. Really like the tips on how long to keep fresh fruits and veggies and nutritional values and nutrient search. Only 4 stars though because I would like to also see a section where it generally highlights why the fruit or veggie is good for you (things like antioxidants, particular vitamins or minerals, etc.) and generally how often it should be included in one's diet (I know everyone's diet needs are different but still good to know)
Absolutely love this app! I installed on my AND the dh's phone. If he's grabbing groceries, he has a quick reference for how to tell if the particular produce item is ripe, fresh, etc. No excuses ;-) Especially great for trying out new fruits and veggies - not only tells you how to select them but how to prepare them (recipes). Perfect if you are working to increase the variety or quality of produce in your diet. This is a very well thought out and implemented app -- one of my current favorites!
App doesn't show asparagus has vitamin K. App doesn't distinguish between bel peppers that have three or four "bumps" on the bottom and how is changing their flavor and typical uses. Etc etc. App has very basic information and it is incomplete. Love Sparkpeople stuff but this app is a waste of space.
Finally, a nicely laid out app for nutrition info, etc that works without a lot of extra steps. Only thing I wish is that the foods were split between veggies and fruits. Maybe add grains, seeds and nuts too. Thanks for a nice clean app.
Missing a lot of veggies I eat regularly. Not interested in emailing staff everytime I find one. Uninstalling.
I like the idea. But when I look up recipes it only shows the ingredients not the order to mix things.
I like the app so far but I sure would use it a lot more often if they would include a list of meat/seafood, herbs and spices.
I work in the produce dept at a grocery store and have customers constantly asking for recipes and what to look for in good produce. This will help so much!!!
I love this app. I have been looking for something that gives me all the nutritional values in every fruit and vegetables. This is the best. Recipes are great too. Now I can eat the best produce for me. Great app!
Great app keep it coming. I would like to know what is the best part's of meat to eat and how much meat to eat in a week.
Also contains fantastic recipes in an eye pleasing interface. Great all around! Thanks Dev!
Easy to use to find nutritional values of any veg. Tells how to buy them, doesn't need Internet to use. Has recipes. The recipes only give calories of recipes. Would be perfect if recipes included carb protein etc.count. very much worth getting.
I think this is my favorite SP app. It has been quite the adventure adding new fruits and veggies into my diet, and this app happily tells you about the produce; how to pick a good one, ways to cook it, etc. I love it!!!
And free... Know I can eat healthier no excuses
Tells you everything. I don't normally spend money on apps, but I gave this one a try and I don't regret it.. so long as they update it regularly ;)
I work in the produce department at s grocery store and this app really helps when I need to look information up pertaining to a specific veggie or fruit.
This has the common veggies and fruits & not even all of them. What about giving me info on some of those lesser used or specialties I often see in the supermarket? That's why I bought this thinking it would tell me more than lettuce & grapes. Seriously this should have been a free app due to the limited info.
Easy to use, great tips on keeping produce fresh. I waste less now. Thanks!
Spark people is an awesome sight and expanding to phones even better especially if you use a desktop at work where you can't access other sites like sparkpeople!! My son uses this app!! and loves it !!
Tells U everything that U need 2 know, very helpful!
I really wish this app was still being used and updated it has great recipes but it teaches people how to shop for fruits and veggies I've learned so much from this app I didn't know how to look for the perfect veggie or fruit and what not to buy So if the developers actually see this review please fix this app so it starts working again on everyone's phone Thank you
