I want to make sure I am calculating my calories correctly...tonight, I had 1/2 of cooked long grain rice. On the bag it states 1/4 dry rice is 160 calories. I Google calories for cooked rice and it states 205 calories for 1 cup cooked rice. So did just intake 320 calories or 102.5 calories of rice?

    The entry log should let you know the calorie count. You should be able to type in the brand name, type of rice and get your calorie count by whichever measurement method you used. If you want uncooked caloric count simply add uncooked in the search field along with the other things I mentioned above.
