    You shouldn't really need to type in 'raw' on most fruits if using Google, I've found.

    In fact, I just googled, "108 grams strawberry calories" [exact wording, even].. Came up 36, even did the math for me. Snazzy google is snazzy.

    32 / 100 = .32 * 108 = 34.56. So the 100 gram entry is close enough because strawberries are such a low calorie food. I Love strawberries!!! :)

    I would trust usda entries over google. JMO
    If you Google food nutrition and get a Nutrition Facts box on the right side of the screen, it (always?) says "Sources include: USDA" under the box.

    The Amount per has a down arrow to let you choose between common units of weight, volume, and fruit size for strawberries.

    That's great but I would still just rather use the site and use the entries that match it. Lol as I said. Just my opinion. I don't particularly trust google.
    Well, we'll agree to disagree. I trust Google more than any entry on MFP that I didn't type in myself. Not Google links to just anybody's website but actual Google to either get me to the manufacturer or put up that Nutrition Facts box that they did themselves.
