## Sesame Reviews in United States

### *---- "Typed search functionality is horrible."
I tried searching for foods I typically eat to see information about them and the search functionality was poorly executed. The categories provided by Sesame include sample product photos and the bread photo is Dave’s Killer Bread. I searched for that brand and it’s not the first result, nor anywhere in the top 25 results. I quit looking after that because I searched for other products and they didn’t show up either. Also, I searched for products with and without quotes and received the same results.

### ***** "Super helpful!"
I have been looking to move to functional medicine and needed some help to improve my diet and get healthier. Sesame was very helpful in that journey! Scanning foods at the grocery store really helped me manage my ADHD and arthritis.
-- Landersilva, 2024-04-11

### ***** "Really cool product"
I’ve always been interested in the concept of food as medicine for some health issues I have, but have only really been implementing it very high level since getting into the nitty gritty of nutrients takes a considerable amount of time and effort. Sesame has taught me so much about the foods I’m putting into my body and has made me think of food and nutrients in a different light. I absolutely love this concept, and the app is really intuitive. Super excited about this!

### ***** "A great app for Hypertension"
I was diagnosed with Hypertension recently and came across this app. I love how easy it is to scan products and see how good they are for my health. Plus they put their sources so it’s a easy and trustworthy app!
-- Paula1958_s, 2024-03-09

### **--- "Obsolete"
Useful concept but app is essentially useless without their subscription or paid plan. I know it might be a small startup, so the fees can be justified but it's not really worth it when there are already free apps that do similar scanning. Honestly it wouldn't be a problem if they just didn't market it as a "free app" (technically true, but doesn't make sense considering you can't do anything within the app without paying). I understand the free version will always be more limited, but be honest, nobody is downloading this app to be able to scan exclusively bread and sauce (the only two types of foods you can scan without Sesame Plus). Even a one-time payment to buy the app could be worth it, I am just genuinely concerned for people paying a subscription to a grocery store app...
-- Sparkling water lover 🙏, 2024-03-01

### ***** "Easy"
Easy to use. Helpful to know what foods are better for my health issues. Hopeful it will help me gravitate toward a better diet, especially for anxiety.
-- yum7/11, 2024-02-16

### ***** "Love this app!"
I love that I’m able to scan all products while I’m in the supermarket to see if they fit within my diet and my current health issues. The app is really easy to use, love that the app has the rating system to rate products within my current health issues. 

Love the conditioning tab on each product because when I have more than one health condition selected it can show the health benefits for each condition separately. 

This app has made food shopping a lot easier with my health conditions knowing what new products I can try.
-- HealthyDebbie, 2024-02-15

### ***** "Incredible app to help the health conscious"
I downloaded this app to be more healthy. It has educated me as to which foods contribute to a healthy lifestyle & which I should be cutting out of my diet.

After using the app for a few weeks, I feel much better and have more energy in my day-to-day life. I’m extremely thankful that I found Sesame!
-- Bobby Sanchez13, 2024-02-15

### ***** "High cholesterol diet"
I just scanned several items in the cupboard using the high cholesterol diet. It worked really well! Easy to use and informative. I look forward to using the scanner at the grocery store next trip.
-- CT Joseph, 2024-02-15

### ***** "Amazing app, super helpful"
Great to see scores of various foods and how those foods may contribute (or prevent) issues that I care about, great idea!
