Get omoby for your iPhone.  With it you can take a picture of a box, bag, or 
jar, and many other things, and it will come back with a result of what the 
thing is.

If the result is blurry, or omoby gives you a result like canned food, just 
turn the item a bit, or to the other side if it's a bag or box, and retake the 
picture.

It does a terrific job, I use it all the time!
