I'm new to the site and either I'm just not being smart right now or its hard to find, but I can't seem to find how to add a new food into the database. Can someone please direct me in the right direction? Thanks!

You can add food through the food diary--if you don't see your item when you search, you can add your own. Also you can enter your own recipes on the recipe tab.0
