SaltScout: sodium advice for the drive-through

saltscout.app Observed source
Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A free app that ranks fast-food menu items by how much of a user's sodium budget they consume.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-11 issue.

Field notes

SaltScout compares a clinician-supplied sodium limit with restaurant nutrition data rather than asking users to maintain a full food diary. Its example leaves 1,240 mg for the day, ranks five Wendy's items by budget share, and marks a 1,630 mg sandwich as over budget. An optional selection reduces the remaining tally until midnight. The site says a person checks each chain against its published nutrition source before activation and notes that Android support and a printable QR handout are planned.
