    I find that there are different ones when you search something.. I usually try to save the packaging or google it to double check.. also look for ones that have been verified by lots of people.. also if it's obviously wrong you can always click that no its not right and suggest changes.

    I also noticed that the calorie counts aren't always correct. Now, when I look up a new food, I search other sites as well (usually the manufacturer's site if possible) to get an accurate count. It's more time-consuming but I want to be accurate and some of these numbers are significantly off.

    Some things I have added were obviously not right. I picked an entry for eggs and it was over 500 calories which didn't sound right at all. The person must have entered their own recipe and that included butter and bacon and cheese or something but it didn't say that on the entry.

    In my opinion a lot of the excersizes are too high as well
