actually, this was what I wanted to mention as well. Examine has all the right talent in nutrition.... openfoodfacts has the technical talent.

you guys should find a way to collaborate ... or even power the next gen Examine

Hello SoloX5. Open Food Facts contributor here. I absolutely love examine.com. Would any of your data be reusable under some open license or is it a strictly proprietary database?

Honestly - we've been meaning to release an API once we get our new backend out. Of course that's been the hiccup - it's been almost ready for far too long :)

Ping me via www.examine.com/contact/ and lets see if we can make it happen.
