Great concept, needs some work

This sounds like a great app. A great help in figuring out whats in that pre-packaged food. You can scan items on the shelf and the ingredients pop right up. If youre allergic or intolerant to something, you can choose those items on a list of common allergens in your profile. If the food you scan contains the allergen you selected, it will be highlighted in the ingredient list and a big red line will appear through the product picture telling you not to eat it. Sounds easy enough. However, I cant have dairy products. Milk, cheese, butter, etc. I chose dairy on the common allergens list, but I noticed it wasnt picking up milk and cheese in the ingredient list when I scanned items in my pantry. I even added those items in the "specific ingredients to avoid" section. But it still didnt highlight them. Just for fun I scanned some cheese in the fridge. Still no red line telling me to avoid it, even though cheese itself was on my list to avoid. As I said, its a great concept but needs some work to actually be useful.
