I discovered The Orange Chef at the VatorSplash event in San Francisco recently. A great new product for foodies, it’s all about eating well with the notion that eating well starts at home. The Prep Pad and accompanying iOS app, Countertop, you’ll have insight beyond your plate. Quickly assemble meals on Prep Pad and watch as Countertop presents you real time nutritional information on your iPad or iPhone. Set your own goals, discover more about your food and gain confidence in making the right choices.
