“Eaten”

Can we have an option to put an item of food as Eaten or Planned. I like some I’m sure plan their food the day before. I put everything. It would be great if I could then tick it as eaten so I can see what I have left

I can see how this may be helpful in planning out your days. For now, you can always pre-log your foods, and then delete any entries that you didn't end up consuming.0

Seconded. Sometimes I'll use the snacks category for planned meals and move 'em elsewhere or remove them later, but it'd be nice to have a dedicated spot for those instead.
Heck, maybe a "pantry" menu instead, where rather than our most recent meals, we can put things we know we have lined up for later so we can quickly look at the macros and so on to plan around 'em. Could do a lot with a menu like that, like divide it into categories based on what nutrients they're stuffed with or maybe just how they taste.1 -

Please add an option like the original poster requested. I like to add all my meals in the morning so that my whole day of eating is planned and I know what macros I will end up with.
A simple check mark showing what I have eaten and what's still left to be eaten on my list would be useful.1
