How to measure Kashi?
I have Kashi every morning for breakfast and the serving size is 1 cup or 53g. I measure out the 53g's on my food scale and it's always way less than a cup of cereal. Do I use that measurement or an actual cup of the cereal - which is a lot more than 53g's!! Which way is correct?

It seems that the MFP totals in the food log area are based off of the FDA recommended daily values. Does anyone know if there is any harm in coming in well…
