How to delete items

How does one delete some items in my foods? Over a period of weeks, I have some things I probably won't eat again for 6 months. But yet, every single thing I've added shows up when I choose "add food". I may want to add my cottage cheese for the day, but I have to weed through 50 other things I do not eat on a regular basis just to find it. Does someone know how to edit this list?

    I assume you are asking about the Recent list, which is the default view for add food.

    ​​The Recent list just displays up to the last 100 items you, yourself, added to your Food Diary. Those food items will eventually drop off of the Recent list display after you log more items. You can not delete them from the Recent list. If you want, you can change your default display to the Frequent list, from which you can hide previous food items that you added to your Food Diary and do not want to see displayed on a list of foods. On the Web version, navigate to FOOD > Settings and change Default Add Food View to Frequent.

    The only way to have the Recent list not display those items that you added to your Food Diary is for you to go back to your Food Diary and delete all instances of those unwanted items from every day that you logged them. However, if you delete those unwanted entries from your Food Diary, be aware that your macros will not be correct for those previous days and any Reports, if you use that, will not be correct.
