Nutrition food database is lacking

under review

Sean Belliveau

Thus far over 50% of the foods I’ve barcode scanned or searched have had wildly wrong answers. So until that improves I’ll continue to use MyFitnessPal. You might want to just data interchange with that instead.

Per Randell’s comment to me on Reddit, here is a missing UPC. Order UPCs from this vendor are recognized.

Incorrect “Added Sugars” Score for Plain Espresso

Radoslav Oleksak

Hello,
I noticed an issue with the food quality scoring for plain espresso in the Bevel app. I logged a shot of high-quality espresso (without any sugar, milk, or other additions), but the app shows an “Added Sugars” score of 100/100.
Espresso, when consumed plain, does not contain added sugars. Its natural sugar content is negligible and comes from the coffee beans themselves. This seems to be a misclassification or a bug in the app’s database.
Attached is a screenshot showing the incorrect score. Could you please look into this and correct it?
Thank you for your attention to this matter!
Best regards,

Hi Radoslav Oleksak, Thanks for reporting this. We have an existing ticket for incorrect Food Quality scores and improvements to the Nutrition database. I'll merge this ticket for you.

Eggs + egg whites and pepper jack cheese both say 100/100 for added sugar when neither contain added sugar.

Hi Nathan Ferguson, Thanks for reporting. Let me merge this ticket to an existing one with a similar issue.

We are currently working to improve our Food Database.

Same thing listed two times with two different titles (one uses & and one uses and). I was trying to get the Hello fresh skillet but gave up and just used this.

Improve food detection

I compared the same foods with CalAi and Bevel, and CalAi made fewer mistakes. For instance, Bevel mistakenly identified my asparagus as beans, while CalAi correctly recognized it as asparagus.

Nutrition Value of Alcohol

Terry Franklin

I'm loving the idea of the Nutrition feature, but I'm not at all understanding why Bourbon shows as an "optimal" food quality of 100 when clearly it is not optimal.
