    the whole data base drives me nuts.
    1% milk, Joe's 1% milk, Bobs 1% milk.
    Is there really a difference.

    BUGS ME

    This IS MESSING UP THE DATABASE A WHOLE LOT!!!!

    NO BODY NEEDS 2 MEASUREMENTS IN THEIR FOOD DIARY, WITH ONE OF THEM ALWAYS WRONG if YOU'RE NOT EATING EXACTLY THE SAME SIZE SERVING AS WHO RECORDED IT!!

    PEOPLE NEED TO BE MORE CONSIDERATE OF OTHERS WHEN THEY RECORD FOOD AND PUT IT IN THE FOOD DATABASE FOR OTHERS TO USE!

    PUT ONE MEASUREMENT---WHERE IT GOES! IT IS THAT SIMPLE!!

    Good thread. The database has a lot of odd an incorrect entries. It should be easy to take the numbers directly from the Nutrition Facts label and add them to the entry.

    9. Do Not Post the Same Topic on Multiple Boards or Groups

    Please choose the most appropriate board or group for your post and post it once. Posting the same message to multiple boards or multiple groups is a form of spam. Please note that this is NOT a guideline against inadvertently posting a question another member has asked before. We explicitly allow members to post questions that have been asked previously by other members. If you see a member post a topic that you think has been asked before by another member, please respond politely or simply move on. However, the same member cannot ask the same question or post the same topic more than once.

    NO BODY NEEDS 2 MEASUREMENTS IN THEIR FOOD DIARY, WITH ONE OF THEM ALWAYS WRONG if YOU'RE NOT EATING EXACTLY THE SAME SIZE SERVING AS WHO RECORDED IT!!

    I like it when the serving size is in the food name because of various packages for the same bloody thing but they are all different. Like Doritos a serving size is 50g but most entries are 28 or 40 because of stupid american or japanese packaging or something,
    If you would all conform to Canadian standards this would not happen.
    Those 10 seconds it takes me to click 100 entries to see their serving size has got to go.
