Ask HN: Rewarding employees who eat healthy through a mobile app

I currently have a mobile app called Foodsnap where users can enter a description of food, and get calorie and nutrition information back.

We are thinking of creating an enterprise version where employees of Company X can enter their employee ID into the app and start using it.

What we will do is assign positive points for good food behavior such as whole, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. No negative points will be issued.

What we will do is give the point total to Company X weekly and then Company X can reward their employees however they want for good food habits (an extra PTO day, lunch, etc).

For example, if you eat an apple, lettuce, and oatmeal today, we might give you 4 points for that. We will be following mainly the guidelines of Harvard's Nutrition Program.

Any thoughts on this?
