Add notes to foods
When I make a custom food, I can add a note to it, but this isn't possible with existing foods in the database. It would be really helpful to be able to add my own notes to foods. For instance it would be useful if I could make notes about serving or package sizes so I don't need to depend on my memory or figure everything out from scratch each time.
As an example, today I wanted to add Vietnamese rice paper wrappers to my diary; in the database they are simply listed by grams of soaked rice paper which isn't a particularly convenient measurement. Last time I added them I went to the trouble of figuring out what the weight of one soaked wrapper was, but obviously don't want to have to do this every time I eat them in future, so it would be good if I could make a note in the app to refer back to whenever I need to add them.

Hi Sqsh,
You can make a copy of a food in our database to save it as a custom food where you can add notes to it.

I could do that I suppose, but I'm reluctant to clutter up my custom foods with loads of other things. Ideally I'd like to be able to do this for quite a lot of foods, if it was just a handful of things I'd definitely go down the custom food route.
