How to add "slice" as serving size?

Hello,

Not sure this is the correct category. Couldn't find one specifically for this.

I wanted to create an entry in My Foods for pizza from a local pizzeria based on their nutrition info. Unfortunately, I'm not able to enter "slice" as serving size. Keep getting an error to enter a "proper" serving size. I've seen entries in the database that show this.

How do you add this info? Am I not doing this in the correct place?

Thanks!
Lyle

    Can you type 1 piece?

    Or as a percentage of the whole pizza?

    For example, if you cut the pizza pie into 12 slices then 1/12 (aka, one slice) equals 0.083 of the whole pizza.

    Try "1 slice" rather than just "slice". I know I've had a similar problem before, but I can't remember exactly.
