different flavors of the same food

i use more than one flavor of some stuff - think protein bars and muscle feast protein powder, for example - in multiple flavors. since each flavor has the same nutritional info, i log 'em all the same. any flavor of muscle feast get logged as vanilla, and any flavor of think bars with the same calories gets logged as white chocolate fudge.

how about you? do you log each flavor separately or use a single database entry?

    I use the same one, even if it varies by 5 or 10 calories. The macros are almost exactly the same, and I usually eat 1/2 serving of most protein powders and bars(sometimes 1/10 to 1/4). It's not being off by 2.5 calories that makes you fat. It's that 500 calorie piece of cake you didn't log.

    Yeah, I do. Though there aren't many things I do this with to be honest.
