How do I edit

How do I edit my Food Diary? Is this possible?
I bought a pre-packaged kale salad for lunch that included the nutritional information on the label. When I was filling out my Food Diary, I thought chose the option that best represented what I had in my hand. But the nutritional content for both items are very different! Way off!
Can I edit this by hand? Is there a better way of choosing foods in the future?
Any advice is appreciated. Thank you!
