How to log one/two bites?

So there was carrot cake in the teacher's lounge today. And some fruit salad. I took a cup of fruit salad (yay, being good! lol- and I actually WANTED the fruit) but I wanted a taste of the cake too. So I took about one/two forkfuls. But how do I log this? I have no way to weigh it, I don't know where it was bought, and how do I determine how much of a "slice" I ate with only one/two bites? It also doesn't help that the carrot cakes listed in the database already have totally different amounts and none of them really have any confirmations. =\ Help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Estimation. Do You think the 2 Bites = 1/10 1/8 1/4 of the Slice? Judge it that way and that's how you enter it. I ate to Bites of my son's PB & J which I will count as 1/4 of the sandwich. I'll have a bit more difficulty entering though cuz I have to Fraction all the ingredients. Good Luck. Hope this helps

    I would add a miscellaneous 100 - 200 calories to compensate for the extra bites but I'd rather overestimate than underestimate.
