Need a filter when searching for food

Options

Really good app, great help to get in control of what and how much you eat.
It would be a big help, if it was possible to set a filter so I avoid seeing all the (US measures like cup and oz) - only want to see food in grams. There is already a huge amount to choose between, many with wrong settings. Alternative if I could mark my own favorite food and primarily use that. Thanks

    If you log a food once, it will stay in your recent/frequent foods and come up first when you go to search for foods to add. That seems pretty close to the "mark a favorite food idea".

    Also, some/many of the foods whose default serving size is ounces or cups have grams in the serving size drop-down list. Once you log a food with a serving size other than the default, that also gets remembered in your recent/frequent foods.
