3 Delicious iPhone Apps for Happy and Healthy Foodies

Love to fire up the ol’ pots and pans? Want to eat a little healthier? Got a little something for Rachel Ray? Yeah, we hear that, so do we.

There’s an increasing trend of food related apps to satisfy every foodie’s hunger. Apple has even dedicated a featured page for Foodie apps to help you discover recipes for any dish you’re in the mood for. Since we’re usually eating, hungry or playing with apps, we thought it was only right we placed our top 3 favorite food related apps on a silver platter.

Fiddme

It’s much more than a Food App, It’s a lifestyle! Fiddme is dedicated to building a community of members with similar culinary taste buds. Eat, Drink, Tell the world is their motto and the service works just as it says. The app lets you snap pictures of your meal, give it a rating and share it in real time by synching with Twitter, Facebook and Foursquare. Discover and follow other members who are also sharing their delicious dishes through the recent meals public feed. Discover new dishes you haven’t had before or simply what to make for dinner. The Fiddme site is sure to spark up a few delicacies. Did we mention Fiddme is completely FREE!?

80 Bites

Think of it as a Pedometer for your mouth. 80 Bites puts your back in control of your eating habits. Over-consumption is everywhere. We’ll spare you with visual representation; suffice to say it’s destroying our bodies, our economy and our environment. Let’s face it: we need to take a good look at the impact of our own over-eating. Even eating too much “good food”—the definition of which gets revised regularly– stretches our stomach and wallet, leading to MORE eating, MORE health problems and MORE strain on our natural resources!  80 Bites reminds you to ENJOY your food. By using audio indicators each time you take a bite, the app informs you when you’ve reached your limit for each snack or meal—so you know when it’s time to stop without even looking! Also there are written alerts reminding you to slow down and chew each bite. Update, 80 Bites has just been featured in the News and Noteworthy section of the app store and we have a 3 promo codes to share with you. Drop a comment!

Hello Vino

Let’s face it; most of us don’t have a clue what to choose when we’re at the grocery store staring at a wall of endless wine choices. Hello Vino is your own personal wine expert in your pocket. The popular wine app recommends wine varieties such as Chardonnay, while offering specific brands to help consumers pick the ideal bottle. Wine brand details include the label image, vintages, price, tasting notes, and region of origin. Ratings and reviews from both professionals and peers are also provided to help consumers with their selections. The extra “wine pairing” feature that tells you exactly what wine goes best with your meal, makes the FREE Hello Vino app a must for both vino experts and novices alike.
