I have just recently started using the MFP app and I was wondering is there a way to remove recently added items to my food diary?

    Yes, swipe left and a delete button should appear

    If you are asking about the Recent list query, no.

    ​The Recent list is a query (search) of your Food Diary, similar to a Google search (query) of the internet. Just as someone cannot delete things from a Google search, an MFP user cannot delete things from the Recent list query. The Recent list exists as a one-time search result of the items stored in your Food Diary. There would have to be a major recoding of the MFP software to allow users to hide items from the Recent list query.

    You could go back in your Diary and delete all instances of the things you logged so that they will not be found by the Recent list query.

    ​​​Please see this article, and search for answers to Frequently Asked Questions and other helpful articles, on the MFP Help/FAQ pages...

    Another option is to change your Diary display tabs in Settings to Frequent. You can hide items on the Frequent list, but on the web version it shows fewer logged items than the Recent list query.
