Laurie,

It depends on the food, since every serving size is different. Here's an article from the Nutrition Resource Center that might help:

The Portion Distortion Guide

Hi Laurie!

I'm glad you like the site! Most of the foods in our database come from the USDA, so we can't change the serving sizes- they are given to us. We appreciate the feedback!

i am going to a diabetes class tomorrow and thanks to this site, all i had to do for part of my paperwork was print off the daily nutrition reports. i just then wrote on the bottom my blood tests and times and bam! my paperwork is done in a very thorough manner. thank you very much for the site and all it does. now if only you could make the food tracker always offer up ounces and grams for amounts of everything. that would make tracking food that much more accurate for everyone. alot of items say serving but they don't tell you what a serving is. just a thought. do you think this could be done?

thanks again and look forward to hearing from you.
have a nice day and many laughs :)
