Vegan Scanner: Food Check

About this app

A mystery ingredient should not send you down a grocery-aisle rabbit hole. Vegan Scanner checks barcodes, ingredient lists, and food photos for animal-derived ingredients, so you can stop guessing and choose with confidence. Tiny labels, unfamiliar additives, hidden dairy, gelatin, shellac, carmine, lanolin, and “natural flavors” can turn a simple snack into a research project.
