/About Spoon Scout - Food Contaminant Lookup MCP
This server provides data about US packaged foods drawn from laboratory testing, FDA recalls and additive regulations. It answers questions about what is known about a specific product, a contaminant, a food category or a food additive, always citing its sources and never assigning a health grade to any food.
You can look up a single product by barcode, id or name and see lab results by chemical, including the kind of evidence, sample counts and median and highest values in parts per billion. You can also compare two to five products chemical by chemical, using each product's own lab results where they exist and FDA's typical level for its kind of food otherwise.
Beyond individual products, the server returns FDA's typical levels of metals and perchlorate for a food category, and shows where an additive is allowed, restricted, banned or requires a warning across the US FDA, the EU and individual US states, each with its law and effective date. It can also place a person's urine or blood test result among CDC NHANES population percentiles and describe in words how high it is.
