Every time I try to add a pre-existing entry to my day, the values are off. Anyone know why? Thanks!

    I have had that happen too. I think it is because companies change their products a bit. So if someone put the info in six months ago it may have been correct back then but then the company changed the product just a bit, so less calories or more fat, etc. I usually find the correct one if I look at two or three entries.
  • plus people are idiots putting in the wrong info, so be careful, make sure it's accurate or it could cost you.

    Thats exactly why. Take marathon bars....Mars changed the ingredients slightly and the nutritional info also changed.
