I have a meal service and would be nice to add a custom name to a quick add. And maybe even a picture

    You could save it as a named "My Food" custom food in MFP. If you know the macros, you can input them; but if you don't you can leave them zero (at least in the Android phone/tablet app). It will give some warning messages and encourage you to add nutrition, but you can keep pressing Save and it will save it.

    This is not a solution. My use case is as follows: I use ChatGPT to calculate calories for me, particularly for dishes that I cook, and it is always a bit different—there are no two meals that are the same; it is always something different. I can tell ChatGPT what my ingredients are, and it will calculate macros and calories per serving for me. It is a bit annoying that I can't save the name of the dish, at least as a reminder of what I have eaten.
