If something is in the database has one number of calories but you look at the restaurants page and it says a different number which would you go by?

Lol that wasn't what I wanted to hear! It is a 110 calorie difference0

I think I'd use the restaurant's number. Since database entries are done "Wiki" style, so it's possible that it is incorrect.

Restaurant one. Even though it is a rough estimate, but restaurant one probably higher than the database. lol0

Restaurants almost always underestimate their calories. Wouldn't you?0

Go by the website. Menus/recipes change at restaurants. Their website is going to be the correct one rather than the database.0 -

that's 1000 calories if it's a single calorie. but eat it. a few extra calories never killed anyone. if that''s what i wanted on the menu I'd eat it in a heartbeat0
