I like the new changes and any thing I use a lot I put in favorites and it is easy to track. Thanks

We went ahead and changed the default sorting to be how it used to be, by "strongest match." However there is now a checkbox you can check to sort alphabetical. In the future we'll make it so that if the box is checked, that gets saved until your next session.

hmm...I haven't been tracking, but sounds like that would bug me, too. Maybe you can make some kind of toggle switch to put it back to the other way if people liked it better the other way? idk, might be too much of a hassle. But I do have to say that I really appreciate the ongoing work to keep "tweeking" the system!

Sorry, I know you can't please everyone, but I REALLY don't like the alphabetical list thing. I just typed in "rice" for lunch and had to scroll through all kinds of packaged rice meals and other random foods to get to simple, plain ol' white rice. "White rice, long grain" used to show up at the top of the list, as I think it should. If I wanted "Rice-a-roni," "Amy's Kitchen Beans & Rice Burrito" or "Bob Evans Rice Pilaf" I would have searched for more than just "Rice."

Sorry for rant. It just bugged me, which is why I had to check out the "What's New!" message board. I know it can't be easy accommodating everyone, but I had to throw my 2 cents in. :)

Hi everyone

We launched a change to the food tracker today. Now when you start typing your search term, above the search box we provide some recommendations based on popular searches run on the site. We hope this helps you find foods easier, and helps with foods you may not know exactly how to spell. If you don't want to use the recommendations you don't need to, just simply complete your search term and either hit Enter or the search button.

Also, search results are now sorted alphabetically. Both of these changes were based on feedback from members, as always we thank everyone for their support and ideas!
