The label says "all-natural." The front says "healthy." The back lists forty-three things you can't pronounce. Point your camera at any ingredient list. NoJunk reads it, scores it 0–100, and flags every additive that shouldn't be there.
Marketing words on the front. Chemistry on the back. Most of us never read the back — and when we do, we can't pronounce half of it.
"Natural" means nothing. The FDA doesn't define it. A "natural" cereal can legally contain BHT, carrageenan, and caramel color.
Sugar has 60+ names. Maltodextrin, dextrose, agave nectar, rice syrup solids — all sugar, all buried in the ingredient list.
Some additives are banned in Europe but sitting on your shelf in North America. Red 40, titanium dioxide, potassium bromate, BHA.
The "health halo" costs you money. "Keto," "organic," "plant-based" on the front — highly processed junk in the back. You pay 40% more for a worse product.
You don't have time to Google every ingredient. Nobody does. That's the point — the labels are written for you not to.
Your phone's camera is already a chemistry decoder. You just weren't using it that way.
Point at any ingredient list and we read it on the spot. No barcodes. No typing. No database misses — if the label exists, we can score it.
Every product gets a single tier-mapped score — Rough, Heavy, So-so, Solid, or Glowing. No red-yellow-green shaming, just a clear read.
Each ingredient explained in plain English. What it is, why it's there, whether it's regulated. Preservatives, colorants, sweeteners, emulsifiers — all called out.

Under five seconds, you see the product's 0–100 score and tier. No login. No account. No nutrition lecture.
Every flagged ingredient, explained. See what to avoid next time. Build a quiet library of what's actually clean.
The 10 "healthy" snacks that aren't — the brands using the health halo to sell you junk, with the ingredient receipts to prove it.
