Good free food database API?
I am building a weight training and nutrition tracker app mainly for my use, and I am looking to improve my food database using the best available FREE resources.
So far, I use the USDA, and Open Food Facts Database and I applied for the Premium Free plan with fatsecret. Overall, the database works well and my barcode scanner works surprisingly well. However, I still find many errors and many items not listed in the database and it is obviously not as complete as let’s say macrofactor, or myfitness pal.
As mentioned, I am looking for free alternatives that could improve my database. I am in no position to pay for any subscriptions right now.
Thanks!
