    foods I use often always show up in the recent tab, have you checked there?

    I'm finding lately that when I enter a specific food (let's say eggs) for breakfast it shows up no problem. But if I were to try to add it under snacks the next day it wouldn't show up in the search because I've never entered it under that before! (in which case I just rescan the barcode etc)
    Might just be a matter of entering the item under each different category at some point, or being lazy like me and just putting it under the same meal everyday whether that's when I ate it or not... haha :D Hope that helps!

    Add something unique to your name for the food and don't make it searchable, so others could change it. That will make it easier to find. :)
