Anyone else having trouble with the food search engine?

Thought I was the only one!! Yeah other people get my misery!! LOL

SAME HERE

Same problem, search not working on the (android) app or the desktop site

Thank god I thought I was going crazy.....I'm like I'm pretty sure the rest of the world calls it a hamburger patty why is there nothing found! ! how long to fix it?

me too me too -- even my own foods are missing -- where did everything go?

Likewise....frustrating. I hope they fix the problem soon.

OMG... there is 100+ new threads started for this issue... pretty insane.. I guess a million people trying to log food crashed the database...

Yes, MFP is aware of it.. they've posted a couple things on the help desk page. You can add quick calories, that's what I did with lunch.
