I try to add a new recipe, but one item won't flag green:

See picture: Mushroom Soup

How do I edit the item 'mushroom soup' so that it's recognized and flags green?

I had the same problem today with cream of chicken soup -- tried entering it as 1 can, 10 3/4 ounces, 1 1/4 cup - nothing worked.  Can't wait to hear what the gurus say!

I even copied and pasted what the calorie "lookup" said so that the title would be exactly the same as the search feature.  No luck.  It was chile w/ ground meat, kuners chili beans, and rotel.  I don't know how it works.

From what I have seen it is a bug in the measurement calculation. It happens if you specify the ingredient by number, but its only defined measurement is "serving".

Unfortunately, I have not found any way to make it work. All I have been able to do is substitute some other food with the same number of calories just to make the calculation work for the recipe.

Hopefully this will be one of the things they fix - I love the recipe calculator. 

I would love to be able to take my "Tagged" items and move them to a recipe that way I don't have to try to figure it out since it isn't in the CC DB any place. That would be really helpful.
