Nutri-Score
Eco-Score

Scan, find & compare more than 2,3 million food products

Choose products that are good for you

- The Nutri-Score grade, from A to E : Nutritional quality
- The NOVA group, from 1 to 4 : Avoid ultra-processed foods (Group 4)

Choose products that are good the planet

- Food causes over 1/3 of global greenhouse gas emissions
- The Eco-Score grade, from A to E : a synthesis of 16 environmental impacts

Contribute to Food Transparency

- Open Food Facts is made by everyone, for everyone!
- In short, we're "the Wikipedia of food", as the press nicknamed the project. Open Food Facts has also enabled the creation of over 150+ apps like Date Limite, Yuka or FoodVisor.
- Use it to make better food choices
- The app is also collaborative. If the product is missing, contribute pictures and data to get the Nutri-Score, food processing level (NOVA) and Eco-Score.
- Make a difference today by photographing a product from your kitchen.
- Open Food Facts is a non-profit project made by thousands of volunteers from around the world. Why don't you join us ?

Decipher food labels

We decipher products labels for you. You'll find:
- Nutrition: The Nutriscore (nutritional score), nutrients, fat, transfat, carbohydrates, sugars, fiber, protein, salt & sodium.
- Environment: The Ecoscore (including carbon footprint (CO2 emissions), packaging (as well as recycling instructions), environmental labels (organic, quality etc.), and origins of ingredients)
- Other: brands, allergens, labels (bio, gluten free, vegan, vegetarian, halal, kosher...), traceability information (packaging codes, origins, food factories)
- On wines and beers, you'll find the alcohol content.

Our grades are science-based, and Open Food Facts is helping science!
- We don't make up things. We rely on peer-reviewed science.
- The Nutri-Score has been created by the independent French team led by Professor Hercberg.
- The NOVA groups on food processing have been designed by the international team of Professor Monteiro.
- The additives synthesis is based on reviews by EFSA on exposure levels on food additives.
- The Eco-Score is based on ground breaking data by ADEME, the French environmental agency, adapted for the world.
- The Open Food Facts community is collaborating with research teams across the planet for research that benefits all.

Your food, your data. Privacy-friendly app.
- You can use the app anonymously
- Your food data is yours, and is never sent online

Set up allergen alerts on products

- Do you have a Milk, Gluten, Eggs, Soybeans, Nuts, Fish, Celery, Mustard, Sulphites, Peanuts, Sesame seeds, Crustaceans, Molluscs or Lupin allergy ?
- Speed up your shopping with an initial screening with Open Food Facts.
- Be careful that the info and the detection may not be 100% accurate. Always double check by yourself, with the packaging.
