Food diary

I thought that when I previously used MFP that if you tried to search in the food section you got a whole range of options come up .. not just what you’ve scanned before ... where has this gone ?... I am a premium member 🤔

    Web version? Apple App? Android?

    On web, when I click "add" from the diary page, I get my recent/frequent, but the search box near the top of the page lets me find things that aren't there.

    In Android, after going through the add sequence, once I get to the page with my history on it, there's also a search box near the top that will bring up other foods from the database, *but* first it filters my history to show things that match whatever's in the search box. If I scroll past that (now smaller) history list, at the bottom there's a clickable "search all foods for XYZ" that will search the full database.
