why is the "most used foods" area so inconsistant? There are some foods that I use almost on a daily basis that never show up there and I have to manually search them everytime. But then there are foods that I will only use one time and then they show up.

    I think it is for "all foods" and can also be broken down into the particular meal you are currently entering for.

    most used breakfast

    most used lunch etc..

    Yeah, but say for instance most used breakfast items are not showing up but items that I use for breakfast once are.

    yeah, it can be pretty annoying. I find it easiest to just look up nearly everything even if I've used it recently. I use the copy yesterday's meal option a lot and that helps. You can also push ctrl+F for a search bar at the bottom of your screen.

    I never even realized that there was a copy yesterday's meal button!!!! That helps alot as i eat the same thing for breakfast most of the time. Thanks!

    This is the thing that bugs me most about this app! The coffee I list every day under "snacks" (always at the top of my "recent" list) never appears in "most used", but something I had for breakfast, not even listed under snacks, five weeks ago, is there under "most used". I'm doing stuff almost entirely on the ipod, not the website.

    Most of the stuff I eat regularly I've ended up saving under "my meals" to get to it quickly. There's always a way around it. But it is a pretty crummy piece of data handling, and I wish they'd sort it.
