can anyone making an IHOP entry actually get it right?

I feel like I'm in an alternate reality where nobody can add.

I was trying to add a simple omelette and there's entries with like 60g of fat in a 300 calorie dish...

I almost was forced to look up their website and actually make the entry myself. The audacity of some people.

    I logged a Casey's Cappuccino last night that had no fat. None! That was the sweetest no sugar cappuccino i ever had! And i'm sure, incorrect. I'm guessing. I don't have time to actually look it up myself.

    Lol, or when people put in weird serving sizes (one slice, or a teaspoon for Greek yogurt)

    MFP should have a feature where if you include "net carbs" in a food description, it logs you out and deletes your account.

    IHOP doesnt even have it right - I've seen their PDF and their website and some of their own items dont agree with each other.

    Some carbs literally count negative. Go figure.

    I believe there are still some 0 protein egg dishes in the database. That's. . . hard to do.

    You know how i feel about this. Someone seriously needs to do a purge on the database.-

    Like pizza.... I so often see 1/9 of a pizza. Who does that? I know from my college days, that the standards cutting is in 6ths or 8ths for most pizzas. How do you get 1/9 from that?

    I saw it on food packaging the other day. It was something like "6 grams Total carbohydrates - 3 grams of Fiber = 3 net Carbs"

    Square pizza. Two cuts each direction.

    I didn't think Pizza Hut, Domino's or Papa Johns did square pizzas. It's always on those or frozen pizzas liek Tombstones that i see them.

    Pizza hut has some rectangular pizzas, but they're 8 cut (2x4). Can't help you with the round ones :laugh:

    Aldi has as a serving size on it's Momma Cozzi pizzas 1/9 of a pizza. I used to cut it into 9 wedge shaped pieces. Got pretty good at it.

    Aldi has the best frozen pizza.... I think the part that makes it unrealistic is who really eats only 1/9 of a pizza.....

    I had to search for a while to find milk that was in ml and not grams, I mean, who weighs their milk?

    I do...

    Servings are in cups here, but I find it's easier than using measuring cups.

    And for the love of all that is holy, can we please clean the database of these old and obivously wrong entries.

    And there are 8 billion Subway sandwich entries with all variations of toppings. Do you even recipe?!

    Domino's has a "thin crust" pizza that my husband gets. It's round, but they cut it into squares, which is weird. Makes no sense to use the "1 square" serving size since the ones near the crust end up as tiny crescents and the squares in the middle are bigger. I just eat 1/4 of it and log it as 1/4 of a total medium pizza.

    In such cases I eat the whole thing. In the name of accuracy.

    I die a little bit each time I see the 1 m&m entry...

    But it's a pain having to put 0.125 servings of the 8 M&Ms standard serving size when I have my daily M&M before bedtime.
