Favorite food tab on Fitbit app

Can we have a "Favorites" tab for food? The last few months I've been eating the same things, it's frustrating when the recent foods aren't there anymore and then I have to go search for it. ie) Grapefruit

 

I would be happy if "Frequent" was replaced with "Favorites" (Possibly organized by meal type or time of day) and "Recent" & "Custom" tabs remained. Find this in alphabetical order.

No favorites listed or ability to add in app in android and iphone. Difficult to add food to favorites in browser. In search frequent or recent should be first option.

Could an option to designate items in the user’s food log as a favorites, which could facilitate entering daily food consumed.

This would be a simple but useful addition. A favourites tab would be more use than the recent tab.

I want to be able to make a list of my favorite food/drink items on the app, so that if I don't consume it for awhile I can still easily grab it later. It's annoying to have to re-search for things. What's the point of making a favorites list on the website if I can't use it on the app?

When you log a food, there is an option to click the star next to it, which adds it to your FAVORITES list, which IS alphabetized. I'm taking some time this evening to go back through the past month or so to star foods I eat all the time. Time consuming, but it is an option for now.

Fitbit, could you at least make STARS available on ANDROIDS?

FitBit, Aside from all of us who have been asking for the ability to easily mark foods as FAVORITES - on the phone apps- and to ALPHABETIZE that list, you will be actually encouraging more people to record their daily intake and to STICK WITH IT! I believe that is at the heart of what Fitbit stands for, no? 

Improve the usability, increase the use!.😁

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE make this very positive update!

There should be an option for 'favouriting' a food item to make it easier to locate when logging.
Where I can choose myself what is my current most used foods, rather than relying on fitbits idea of my most used/recently used food which can be incorrect.
