Want to know the nutrition metrics in some type of food? Don’t have a mobile device which can run the Calorie Counter app? (Here are iPad and iPhone links.) Simply go to the Foods tab at fatsecret.com to search for just about anything. For example, here is a link for a can of Kroger Black Beans.

Tip: If you have the iPhone version of the app, the icon in the top right corner is a button which should allow you to take a picture of a barcode on a package using the built-in camera. The app will then look up the item automatically from the Fatsecret database. I haven’t tried it myself since I run on the iPad.
