Cookies:
When you interact with the FoodCalc.com Website we strive to make that experience

previously. Standing alone, cookies do not identify you personally. They merely
recognize your browser. Unless you choose to identify yourself to FoodCalc.com,
either by responding to a promotional offer, opening an account, or registering
on the Site, you remain anonymous to FoodCalc.com. Cookies come in two flavors:
session and persistent-based. Session cookies exist only during an online session.
They disappear from your computer when you close your browser software or turn off
