Sugar in database

Can anyone find the generic, MFP entry for just plain white sugar? I used half a cup and can't seem to find anything. I know the MFP (no asterisk) entries are more accurate, and I could find one for brown sugar, but not white granulated.

    I usually find it under granulated sugar. I hope this helps!

    It's under "Sugars - Granulated (sucrose)"

    Look for: Domino Sugar - White Sugar - it'll also give you the option to put a whole container which might be easier to calculate the 1/2 cup measurement you are looking for.

    Also, has anyone found it for clementines?

    Yes I just didn't know if there was an "official" entry for them
  • I like this web link, I always double check everything in the MFP food database because there are a lot of wrong entries. I also save a lot of things under my foods that I use a lot just to make it quicker when I don't want to double check.
