Meal Tracker using OpenAI and Airtable

I’m using OpenAI to figure out the meal and calories based on the NLP message I pass it. The message can be e.g. “2 sourdough slices with butter and strawberry jam”.
I am also using OpenAI to return the name of the meal so that we could store it in Airtable for visualisation. My initial plan was to integrate with MyFitnessPal, but looks like their APIs are not open to everyone.

Unfortunately OpenAI is not very accurate in working out calories. It may assist to integrate a nutrition API into the workflow. Also when the MyFitnessPal API is open it is very expensive.

Yeah it’s better than managing my workflow elsewhere and using a fiddly app to do it.
