By Julie Bort, Business Insider, SouthFloridaReporter.com, Jan. 11, 2016 – One of my favorite food and nutrition apps, MyFitnessPal, is taking on one of the biggest battles of the bulge: calorie counts from restaurant meals.
But it wants to do more than just tell you how badly you blew your diet after you down that giant burger and plate of fries.
It wants to help you decide which restaurants are near you with menu items that meet your calorie and nutrition goals.
You can, for instance, see that within 1 mile of you is a place that serves pasta dishes that are all over 600 calories but 5 miles away there’s a pizza place that has a bunch of options for 200 calories a slice.
Almost half of its 100 million users eat out at least once per week, it says and in a recent survey of its users, nearly everyone said they would use nutrition info before ordering, if it were available.
