Help with food tracking

Does this app have the ability to track food in grams? I see only size measurements, not weight measures. Size of food portions are way too varied. Any help is appreciated.

You can change the weight to grams when you add your food.1

I only saw that for certain foods, not all. Do you have that feature for all your foods?0

You're speaking to a fellow user. I've been able to find gram entries for virtually all foods I've eaten since 2015. The few that I can't, I've created my own database entry. This is a user-created database, so if you can't find an entry that meets your needs, just make your own.3 -
When you find one without the unit you want, try another. The database is a hot mess of partial duplication.3

Wonderful. Thank you so much.0 -
If you search food and add g I tend to have decent luck finding ones that have gram measurements included2
