How's the food database?
Is it static, or can one change it locally, and/or upload contributions?
You can add your own local stuff. No idea if it gets uploaded. The database has been solid for UK products at least.
It looks like it stores the "Swiss food Composition Database" locally, and also hits up Open Food Facts and the USDA Food Central databases. Any or all can be disabled in the settings.
I have uploaded to open food facts.
