Food impacts every aspect of our daily lives, from the nutrients we consume to the safety of the products we buy at the grocery store or order in a restaurant. Reliable information can help reduce waste, improve health outcomes, and ensure food safety. By compiling publicly available data and structuring it in an accessible way, Food Insider empowers users to answer everyday questions such as: Is this food still safe to eat? What nutrients does this product contain? Has this drug or supplement been recalled?
