Save my profile and preferences for future visits
I'd like to be able to save my profile and preferences and be able to access them when I come back to the site. Is there a way I can set up a user account?
Status: plannedThat's a great idea. Right now, our site has cookies that should remember your preferences from visit to visit, but these don't work well if you log in from different browsers or different computers. We're planning to introduce this when we introduce accounts.

low to no sodium, low to no msg
On 2200 mg salt diet for heart condition; would like a "don't want" option for salt. Although low sodium is shown as request, searches brought back far too many items and most with high sodium level. Would take too much time to use this site and sort through all returned items. That ... more
Status: plannedYes, we realized that just "want low sodium" wasn't adequate so our next site update that should be live next week will provide a "don't want high sodium" option. Hopefully, this helps you weed out many of the products! The best way to use it will be to select "don't want high sodium" and then use the filters on the upper right of the search results page to hide products with an "X." We hope this improves your site experience! Also, we hope to add an MSG filter in the near future. Thanks for the note.

Taste filter, with community/user generated taste ratings
Can Shopwell include a taste filter, and then allow users to rate the taste of food items contained in the database? Since taste is one of, if not the most important factors in determining food and beverage purchase and consumption, this would be an extremely valuable addition to the rating syst... more
Status: under reviewYes, we see great importance in a community generated taste rating system and hope to implement this in the future. Thanks for the suggestion! It's on our radar.
