Junk Food Scan is a packaged-food barcode and photo-scanning app built to show the reasons behind each available product rating and help shoppers compare alternatives.
Junk Food Scan helps people find packaged food information without digging through multiple databases or treating a single number as the whole story. The app brings available nutrition details, ingredients and comparisons into one place.
JFS shows the nutrition and ingredient signals behind its own product rating. Our ratings are a product-comparison tool, not medical judgments or official government nutrition grades. When records do not contain enough reliable data, JFS may withhold a rating.
JFS uses available records from USDA FoodData Central and Open Food Facts. Different packages, markets or database updates can produce different details. We encourage everyone to verify the package label.
Junk Food Scan is developed and published by Atlas Build Studio. This site explains JFS features, how product information is used, and the limits of our rating system.
Our guides focus on practical questions about packaging, labels, data quality, and the JFS experience. Articles link to relevant sources where appropriate. We correct misleading or outdated information when identified, and we do not invent qualifications or claim professional medical review.
We welcome reports of inaccurate product data, questions about our scoring explanations, and feedback on the website or app.
