Tracking Fat Grams - where are the unknowns?

Question about MFP and tracking fat grams.

At the end of the day, let’s say MFP shows I ate 29 g of fat. Then it breaks down: Saturated 8; Polyunsat. 1; Monounsat. 2; and Trans 0. This does not add up to the 29 for the day. What are the other missing grams – unknowns?

I am just curious because I eat a higher fat diet due to eating nut oils, almonds, almond butter, avocados, etc. So I am trying to increase the healthy fats and remove unhealthy but there is always an “unknown” of the breakdowns never matching the total grams.

Anyone have any idea what the “unknowns” are?
