Restaurant Fast Food Nutrition Menu and Calorie Watchers Journal app review: eat out the sensible way

Reviews

Introduction

What we have here is an iPhone and iPad app that has been designed to provide fast food junkies and restaurant goers with a way of learning more about the carbs, fat, protein, and total calorie content of the items on the menu before ordering.

The best calorie counter apps for iPhone and iPad

I would like to start this review by saying that this app is designed in a very sound manner with a crisp interface and all-round smooth operation. Having said that, I really can’t recommend this app because I personally just don’t think it’s a necessary purchase.

Enjoy Yourself If You're Eating Out!

I’m an amateur bodybuilder which means that I live a very healthy lifestyle with a fairly regimented diet plan. I’m pretty flexible with my diet, so I will indulge in a nice treat or restaurant meal once or twice a week when the mood strikes.

The best iPad apps for nutrition

The reason I bring this up is that I really can’t imagine checking Restaurant Fast Food Nutrition Menu Calories Counter, Tracker, and Calculator for Weekly Weight Loss Diet Tracking and Calorie Watchers Journal before ordering a pizza or burger, for example.

An Unnecessary App (In This Writer's Opinion!)

If you go out a moderate amount to eat some tasty junk food, I would say to just enjoy yourself and don’t make it too frequent an event. If on the other hand you’re eating this stuff frequently enough that you need an app like this then I would very strongly (and with much humility) suggest reconsidering your eating habits!

The best iPhone apps for vegetarians

This is all just my humble, humble opinion, and perhaps this app will be of great use to some people, but we’re talking about eateries like Five Guys and Arby’s; these aren’t the kind of places that the health-conscious typically frequent!

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Find out the exact nutritional content of some of your favorite fast food and restaurant items
  • Includes coverage for more than 250 popular franchises
  • Provides classic and new food score values for each item
  • See details of the calories, fat, carbs, and protein of popular fast food items

Cons                            

  • I really don’t think this app is necessary because if you’re going to eat out at a restaurant, the last thing most people want to be doing is getting out their iPhone and checking the carb or fat content of each item before ordering!

Final Words

Restaurant Fast Food Nutrition Menu Calories Counter, Tracker, and Calculator for Weekly Weight Loss Diet Tracking and Calorie Watchers Journal might be for some but it certainly isn’t for me. In closing, I’d like to reiterate that there is nothing wrong with the development of this iPhone and iPad app itself, I’m just finding it difficult to figure out exactly what kind of audience the developer is trying to target.
