Pocket Calorie Counter, 2015 Edition Hardcover – October 15, 2014

Good News: Nice book with a hard cover and an elastic page marker. Lists calories and nutritional value.Bad News: Print is pale in color, and hard to read for an old lady like me. Also, it's a bit confusing. For instance: If you want to find the calories for the cream in your coffee, you look up CREAM. It lists half & half and light cream. But, if you use heavy cream, you have to look in the H's, under HEAVY.

This little book has more accurate info than any calorie counter app! It not only has info on restaurant meals, but real food, too, which most apps are lacking. It also has an AWESOME introduction on nutrition and how, what and when to eat to lose weight no matter where you're starting from. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Print needs to be bigger. Can't see without a magnifier which is a pain.

Handy little guide to have around. It has a lot of good info for many of the more common fast food joints and practically every food you can buy in a grocery store. It comes in handy when your calorie tracking sites have bad databases of info.

Easy to use. Gave several to friends. Wishing there were an updated edition.

Bigger and heavier than I expected. Too big to carry in handbag. It has a lot of detail in it though. I just use it at home.

There is no listing for grams of sugar. And some of the calorie listings are way off.

I feel the print is too small , that is the largest complaint.

Nowhere does it state that this is an American product listing American foods and restaurants. It is a really good book, well made and sturdy and seems comprehensive, as long as you are American. Although it is great for fried Abalone, fresh Abiyuch and Acerola Juice (?!) there is no Yorkshire pudding, Bisto gravy or scones. Even the well known restaurants have a totally different menu so finding a McDonalds double sausage and egg breakfast muffin is not listed. If this were based on English foods I would recommend it 100% but sadly this is going back to Amazon.

Just ideal size to put in your bag.

Very good

I have been looking for a book like this for years! If you’re counting calories or watching saturated fats or carbs you will find the information you need in this book. Previous reviews of this book have commented on ghe sizeof the print snd thr fact that many of yhe products are only available in the US. While the print is fairly small, my eyes are not good and I have no problem reading the print. As far as availability hoes, that shouldn’t matter, as packaged food has all the nutrition information printed on the package, and produce is the same in Canada as the US. Restaurant food is covered as well, mostly fast food restaurants. Overall, I found ghis book well worth thr pricr,

Actually, 4.5 stars. Great reference book. Never needs recharging. There's a bunch of restaurants listed from the U.S., that we (in Canada) don't use, so that's why I mark it down from 5 stars.
