🛒 Order support

How does "Buy on Amazon" work?

Most products on yummylogy.com are reviewed picks that fulfill via Amazon.com. When you click "Buy on Amazon", you're taken to Amazon's product page where you complete checkout, payment, and shipping with them — using your existing Amazon account.

YummyLogy earns a small affiliate commission on qualifying purchases, at no extra cost to you. This is how we fund the editorial work and the rules engine.

Where's my order? How do I track it?

Since checkout happens on Amazon, order status and tracking live in your Amazon account: amazon.com/orders. We don't have visibility into your Amazon order or the shipping carrier.

How do I return something or get a refund?

Returns and refunds are handled by Amazon under their return policy: start at amazon.com/orders → find the item → "Return or replace items". YummyLogy can't process refunds on your behalf.

Are prices on YummyLogy current?

Prices update on a delay. Amazon's product page always shows the current price and is the source of truth — please verify before completing a purchase.

The product I bought isn't what I expected — who do I contact?

For issues with the physical product, packaging, or shipping: Amazon customer service. For feedback that the YummyLogy verdict or description was misleading: email hello@yummylogy.com with the product link. We take editorial corrections seriously.

📱 App support

When does the iPhone app launch?

The backend rules engine is live and powers the badges you see on this site. The iOS app is in active development — TestFlight beta is the next milestone. Read more ›

How do I get early (TestFlight) access?

Email scanner@yummylogy.com with the subject "Beta" and the Apple ID email you use on your iPhone. We'll send a TestFlight invite when the next round opens.

Does the app cost money?

Free during the beta. We'll communicate any pricing model well before public launch.

What can the app read?

UPC barcodes (EAN-8, EAN-13, UPC-A, UPC-E, Code 128) at v1. Photographing an ingredient label for OCR parsing is a v2 feature.

The app scanned a product but got no verdict / wrong verdict.

When a barcode misses every data source (our cache, USDA, Open Food Facts), the app prompts you to "Help us add this product" with a photo of the label. Once submitted, our editorial team reviews and adds it — usually within a few days.

If you believe a verdict is wrong, email scanner@yummylogy.com with the UPC and what you'd expect. Many wrong-verdict cases are stale cached ingredient lists we can refresh.

What about privacy?

No account is required. Barcodes you scan may be cached in our public product database to help future scans — they aren't tied to your identity. The app stores its API key in iOS Keychain.

Understanding verdicts

What does the YummyLogy verdict actually mean?

Every product we cover gets two layers of assessment:

The binary verdict — Approved, Caution, or Not Approved — based on whether any ingredients hit our rules-engine flag list (artificial flavors, refined seed oils, artificial sweeteners, chemical preservatives, certain dyes, etc.).

The quality tier — Premium, Good, Standard, or Industrial — measured within a product category. A premium olive oil is cold-pressed, single-origin, monovarietal; a standard one just clears the basic bar.

Why was a product I expected to be Approved marked as Caution?

The most common reason: a product is otherwise clean but the label doesn't claim a quality signal we treat as required for full approval — for example, an olive oil that doesn't claim "cold pressed" or a honey that doesn't say "raw". We can't tell from the label that it isn't those things, so we don't assume that it is.

Expand "Why this verdict?" on any product page to see the exact checklist of what we matched, what we flagged, and what was missing.

Where do your ingredient rules come from?

Our rules engine cross-references each ingredient against regulatory data from 17+ jurisdictions including the FDA, EFSA, Health Canada, FSANZ, and IARC. We also layer on YummyLogy editorial rules — for example, escalating modified food starch to Not Approved because of how broadly it acts as a stand-in for whole foods.

Product data itself comes from Open Food Facts (3M+ items) and USDA FoodData Central.

I disagree with a verdict — can I appeal?

Yes. If you're a brand and we got a product wrong (e.g. parsed an outdated formulation), email editorial@yummylogy.com with the product link and the current ingredient list. We'll re-scan within a few business days.

If you're a shopper and want to suggest a new rule (e.g. a preservative we don't catch yet), use the contact form below and tell us what we're missing.

Editorial & partnerships

I'm a brand — how do I get listed?

Email editorial@yummylogy.com with your Amazon ASIN (or the product page URL) and a short note on what makes the product distinctive. We don't charge for listings — products are evaluated on the same rules everything else goes through.

Can I suggest a new ingredient rule or quality attribute?

Yes — send the ingredient name plus any regulatory references (FDA, EFSA, etc.) to editorial@yummylogy.com. We review suggestions in batches.

Press / partnerships
