The parent’s food scanner app

Most nutrition labels only apply to an average adult, but children’s nutritional needs can be very different. Our app helps convert nutrition labels to your child’s specific age group to help you make informed decisions.

Analyze nutrition labels quickly for your child’s nutritional needs

Most nutrition labels are only for adults on a 2,000 calorie diet, and it can be difficult to decipher how they apply to children, who have different nutritional needs.

ChewChew helps you quickly identify the pros and cons, such as whether an item has higher sodium or if it is a good source of protein.

Find nutritional information for common whole foods

Our database includes both branded and unprocessed foods.

Curious about how much fiber a banana has, or the iron in beef? Find out in our database of over 1 million items.

Our default serving sizes are smaller to reflect smaller portions for children, and the daily value %s are based on your child’s specific age group.

Learn

Did you know that vegetarians may need as much as 1.8x iron as non-vegetarians or that zinc plays a vital role in growth? Or that Vitamin A is important for healthy eye development?

There is so much information out there and it can be overwhelming to wade through, especially when there is competing information. Our nutrient guides give the information that parents really care about—the roles of different nutrients, how they may interact, and the daily value amounts recommended by the National Institutes of Health.

No ratings, no judgment

While other food scanner or nutrition apps may have ratings for items, we feel that ratings can be unnecessarily judgmental. Parents are already judged for so many other parenting choices, and nutrition should not be one of them.

Instead, we want to provide parents with a tool to make decisions for their families, judgment-free.
