Health Laziness Hits New High: iPhone App Tells Calories In Food From A Photo

I was just thinking, "Boy! I'd love to count my calories, but typing in what I'm eating is WAY too much work." Great news for me! There is a new app ($2.99) on the iPhone called MealSnap that lets you count calories in what you're eating without typing a thing! No more trying to figure out how many calories you're burning by all that annoying typing on the cell phone. Or using your brain too much, either!

The deal is, you take a photo of your food, and it just registers what you're eating and tells you the calories, tracks it, etc. I get it, it's a really cool visual database system that is able to recognize this stuff, but as with many things in life I am left asking... 'Why?'
