Healthy eating used to mean calorie counting and cooking low-fat dishes, but these days good nutrition is more of a minefield. Allergies and pesticides come into play, and there's the perpetual battle against time. Finding the time to search for a recipe, make a list, shop for ingredients, and actually cook a meal can be overwhelming.

Your electronics might be partially to blame for your time crunch in the kitchen. (Facebook, Tumblr, Words with Friends, we're looking at you.) So why not put your phone and tablet to work by using it in the store, before you buy those pesticide-laden, high calorie foods?
