    You are exactly right, not everyone's idea is the same.
    Here is a good article on it (someone else posted it here)

    Interesting read, thanks :)

    Easy?
    Forget easy; look it up and log it.

    Again, simple deal.

    As I have! Everything in Raw fruits and Vegetables in the database under the Brand Name FDA GUIDELINES has been added by me. I found it ridiculous to calculate these things by an estimate of what my interpretation of a small vs medium vs large piece of fruit was, and that things rarely seemed to have the correct macro labels, especially potassium.....so I found all of the foods on FDA website and added them based on grams not size.

    The only down side is that if it doesn't come in a package, then it doesn't have a nutritional label, and I don't know how to accurately log it. Meats, fruits and veggies are the hardest to track.

    Not really-- measuring cups, look up how much you used, easy. Not **AS** easy as just looking at a label, but putting in that extra 5 seconds of effort is worth achieving a healthy, beautiful and strong body in my opinion.
