Wanted: One basic gross carb counter app

When at home, I use www.nutritiondata.self.com to look up the gross carb count for food. However, I'm traveling this weekend and I need that same information for my android phone. It seems such a simple thing - the gross carb count for a food I'm going to eat, but I can't find a tool like that anywhere. I've searched the net, I've searched tudiabetes, I've searched my android marketplace...any other suggestions.See More
