I cannot find coconut oil in the foods database listed by ounces. So I created an entry in my foods. But when I go to create a recipe that I need to use ounces in I can't seem to access the entries in my foods.
Any ideas if or how I can do this?
Thanks
Phyllis

When you added the item in My Foods, did you also add it to the database?0

Also, when you add the item, you may need to figure all that out based on the label and add various measurements yourself.0
