The MFP Fat Goals Appear Wrong?

In my case, it lists my goal of Saturated Fats as 19 grams.

But it lists my goals for Polyunsaturated and Monounsaturated fats as 0 grams for each.

This looks terribly wrong.

(and I wish MFP listed Omega-3 and Omega-6 content).

    Thank you! This makes sense.

    I do eat predominantly whole foods, so I really wish that MFP would use the open databases which provide additional information, such as B12 and Omega-3/6. I have been eyeing enviously the information provided on Cronometer, for stuff like flax meal, chia and oats, which are part of my daily routine, as well as a lot of other whole foods I consume.

    But Cronometer's database is a bit limited, which is making me wish that MFP would just include the more detailed information where available, I we can get the best of both worlds.

    Thanks again!

    P.S. I just signed up for Cronometer Gold.

    Wondering if it would work if I enter most of my caloric intake in Cronometer, and what's not available in the their database, in MFP.

    Then, as they are linked to my FitBit account, I can get a combined, more detailed report from FitBit. I'll try it and see if it works.... (fingers crossed)
