'Spe.lt' is an online tool that helps users identify the nutritional content of whatever food they are interested in. Whether you're trying to watch what you eat or you're simply curious about the dishes you're consuming, this simplistic tool makes it easy to see what's inside your favorite foods.

Spe.lt is free to access and incredibly easy to use. Simply type in the name of the food you are interested in and the site will offer a breakdown of the nutritional content. The tool will show you how many calories are in the item as well as the protein, carbohydrate and fat content. You can look up individual food items or begin creating a list to [track your daily consumption](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/food-diary).

While the tool is fairly simplistic, it does provide an easy way for people to keep track of what they are eating.
