Hi,

I can't seem to be able to delete an ingredient in my meals and recipes. I accidentally added one twice and I can't figure out how to delete, I can only edit the quantity which I guess I could set to zero but it's not very satisfactory. I am using MFP on a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.

Any assistance gratefully received.

    Try swiping left (works on iOS) or press and hold

    Pressing the item opens the dialog box for entering serving size etc. Swiping does nothing.
