I ate a Michellina’s for lunch. The package said 270 calories. How come Fatsecret lists it as 320? Frustrating when you are counting calories! Not the first time this has happened. What is the difference?

it is one of the problems I have as well. and you can't custom make food to get a correct reading on it either

True, but sometimes I have to just do the ingredients. Takes a lot of time. Would like to be able to do a recipe and calculate the serving and size.

I believe it's because some foods are user entered and, therefore, are not entirely accurate.

And recipes change...but you can customize it through the web site, if the current entry is no longer correct. I do it all the time.
