I always add the ve(and any other foods) as the raw amount used, whether I cooked it or ate it raw to avoid this problem. |
Good catch! I should've thought that 14 carbs for a cup was too high for broccoli
Yes, fitday is 'funny' sometimes...if you put in thje cooked version, it makes all sorts of assumptions about how it was cooked/seasoned. I always use the 'raw' ingredients when I'm cooking myself. I do use the 'cooked' version if I've eaten the food in a restaurant, or if someone else has done the cooking.
