You are still selling a product that says it can count calories when fundamentally it cannot. The fact that people believe you and pay you money for it doesn't change that fact. You are lying to people.

> SnapCalorie is the first app where you can take a picture of any meal and get an accurate calorie count and nutrition in seconds

This is from your website. It is pure fiction. You admit as much in your first post

We published in the top conference of computer vision a peer reviewed study of our accuracy. On average we are twice the accuracy of a professional nutritionist. The product is free to try. If you're not happy with the accuracy, don't pay! We have around half a million people each month coming to our app and a vast majority stick around and are happy with the results.

If there's something we missed on your food shoot me a DM, I'd love to dig in.
