When searching for food, want only those listing calories by weight

I use a food scale and weigh everything, so when I am searching for food and more than 30 choices show up, it is extremely annoying to have to click into each of these one by one until I find one that shows calories per gram/ounce.  It would be great to add a little checkbox next to the "What did you eat?" search control entitleed "by weight only" that would cause the search to return only thos matches that are useful to me.  This would also help to reduce the ridiculous number of matches returned for some foods.  For example, searching for "chicken breast" returns more than 30 matches, and maybe the one I really want is at number 37, so I can't see it.

Should be fun and easy to implement!  🙂

I too find it frustrating to try and find the "right" choice based on the measurement I'm using. Also I have some recipies for dishes that are not included as a choice, for example Jalapino Ginger Butter Nut Soup. Currently I add the items into the Menu section to tally all the ingredients into one selection. It would be nice if I could do virtually the same thing but under the foods tab.
