When it comes to the Blackberry v/s iPhone battle, I have always firmly been part of the BB camp. That was until recently when I found out about possibly the coolest iPhone App! Might possibly be because it is food related..The way it works is simple, take a picture of your food (which we all do anyway right - or is it just me?) and et voila it tells you what you are eating and approximately how many calories it has!
Is it wrong to want an iPhone just for a single app? If you've tried it, let me know what you thought! I am curious to know if their database of 500,000 foods has many Arabic or Desi specialties in it.

This is very cool, downloading it now. Will let you know hw it goes
I am someone who need this. Too bad the iphone and I aren't very good friends. (I hate the touchscreen!)
Let's hope they come up with one for the blackberry soon! :)
This app kinda scares me ! i mean well i DO try to eat healthy ( Though my waist would disagree ) but i have lots of lapses :D... love your blog . Just a thought though. would love if you had a "subscribe by email" button... it just makes it easier for us who dont use blogger :)...
Thanks for the feedback Shafeena.. glad you like the site! The email button sounds like a great idea - shall be added shortly :)
This app is quite scary but having tried it now I can say it gives you very rough approximations of what you're eating which can vary greatly.. but I suppose what it does is still quite amazing! It can only improve over time I suppose and anything that can help us monitor our calories surely cant be a bad thing esp if you are like me and have a bad sweet tooth! :D
