If, like every other year, your new year's resolution is going to be to lose a little bit of that holiday weight, you need to start counting calories.  The iPhone makes that task quite a bit easier and a lot more entertaining with apps like FoodScanner, which is on sale for a limited time. foodscanner_screen1FoodScanner is a barcode scanning app that uses your iPhone's camera to scan UPC barcodes on the foods you consume.  It uses Occipital's RedLaser technology, which means it is able to scan barcodes with relative ease and quickness on any iPhone.  Once a barcode has been scanned, the app pulls up all of the nutritional information for that product.  From there you can enter how many servings you have consumed and it will keep track of your total caloric intake for the entire day.  Foods can also be stored as favorites so you don't have to scan them every single time. FoodScanner is capable of syncing with a free online DailyBurn account in order to provide you with advanced nutrition analysis and history, allowing you to take your new year's resolution all the more serious. We have an in-depth review of FoodScanner available in case you need more information. FoodScanner is normally priced at $2.99, but it will be on sale for $.99 until January 5th.
