Alternative option: put the serving size in the food's title, e.g. "Fake parmesan (1 tsp)". Ooh, that reminds me, I finally have miso back in stock, I should go and make some of that stuff up. (It's...

Oh piffle. I always walked to primary school (ages 4-11), and after a few years I walked alone. The main thing was that I had to walk on the streets rather than cutting through the coppice or the...

Hiya, welcome back.
