Eating Out and the Food Log

[EmpressReborn]

I just got my Inspire 2 today and started recording what I eat in the Food Log.

I noticed one problem: I go out to eat once a week to different places (all cheap), and I don't know how to add them to the log (These places don't exactly have barcodes on their food).

So, does this mean that I can never eat out again? Or is there a way to add them to the Food Log?

@EmpressReborn , A warm welcome to the Community ! Thank you for your message. 

If you go to a well known food chain you can find/search the food item by the name of the restaurant. Right of the bar code icon you'll see the search icon.
Eg. you could search for Pizza, but if you know the restaurant name, you could search for "Pizza Hut" or  "Domino's" and you'll see your options there. If the brand doesn show up, you could use one of the generic items to select.

Okay, that's useful. But there are a number of things at the fast food chains that aren't listed. 

I'll give an example. Currently, Wendy's has two types of food: The Ghost Pepper Chicken Sandwich and the Loaded Nacho Cheeseburger. Neither are listed under Wendy's section of the Food Log. How would one go about listing them or the correct meals?

@EmpressReborn , Thank you for your reply! The things you mentioned are mostly for limited time available on their menu. That's why they are not listed, but the information about the calories intake can be found on the web. 

In that case, you could add it as custom food, where you can add the nutrition facts of any product. 

I found these 2 pages that might help you with the information needed.

There are other sources on the web, that you could check.
