It means that information was provided by another MFP member and that you can validate it's accuracy when you look at the nutritional information and saying yes, no or I don't know that it's true or not. If you say no then you can update it to the correct values.0

Ah, I knew about the asterik, but I didn't know about the correcting. I usually confirm the details but I ran into something one day that did not have the potassium amount entered. I just bypassed it. If I see the information is correct I do hit the confirm button.0

I added a food today - Breyers all natural vanilla chocolate strawberry ice ceam, and I don't see an asterisk next to it? Shouldn't it have one?0

No, I believe the astericks only show up next to things other people have put in. I think they figure you already know that you are the one you entered it!0
