Just at a quick glance...

How can a large egg (50 g) contain 147 g choline?

Additionally, on https://www.opennutrition.app/search/brown-lentils-VwKWF7CQq... it says:

> Unlike larger legumes, they require no pre-soaking and cook in 20-30 minutes, making them ideal for soups, stews, and salads

That is not necessarily true. Based on my experience, it does require pre-soaking, otherwise you will have to cook it for a long time, as opposed to red lentils (which is done under 15 minutes, no pre-soaking needed), although red lentils taste more like yellow peas.

In any case, I think this could be really useful, once accurate enough. One could even implement other features on top, such as a calorie tracker and so forth, but that is a huge project on its own.

I wish you luck!
