Thanks for the response! Our team is part of a quickly growing meal prep takeaway company whose main client base is made of a lot of Fitbit users. We are hoping to utilize the API or other means to add menu items and their nutritional content to the public database, making it easier for Fitbit users who eat our food to find and enter their daily meals.
I certainly do not speak for the FitBit API team but I doubt you'll get it added.
It might even be better for you if they didn't add it, then you could say, "connect our app to have pre-defined food data for FitBit".
The problem is that there are millions of potential food items that could be added to the Public food database, but that's obviously impossible. Even granting some requests would require occasional updating, which a complicated system would need to be built to handle that properly. I doubt any company wants constant emails, "we stopped selling our strawberry milkshake, please remove it from your public food API".
