It’s not giving us many options, when I search “Shortbread biscuits” I should get multiple options not just one, maybe when writing it will also try to write what you want but without over doing your writing, and should give multiple options similar how “calorie counter” works gives multiple options.

Hi Has,
Thanks, this is really helpful, and the Calorie Counter screenshots make it clear what you’re after.
“Describe” works a bit differently from a food search. It reads what you type and makes one estimate for each food you mention. That’s why “Shortbread biscuits” gave you a single result. It’s best for whole meals, like “two shortbread fingers and a cup of tea with milk”.
For what you’re describing, use Search instead:
Tap the + button at the bottom right
Tap Search food
Type “shortbread”
You’ll get a list of branded products to pick from (Walkers, Griffin’s and others), several with a real serving size such as “1 biscuit (12 g)”. Tap one to check the nutrition, pick how much you had, then add it.
If the exact product you have isn’t there, pick the closest one and correct it under Adjust. Once the update I mentioned is out, you’ll also be able to set the serving size there, for example 1 biscuit = 18 g.
Let me know if Search finds what you need, or if particular products are missing.

Oh, okey, yeah, I did not see that haha
Maybe this can be a suggestion, but can you be able to fetch more pictures, or get info from calories counter, or somewhere, as you can see I have tried wording it differently, but the pictures also don’t really match, and will be easier such as having the shops name where you can get it from as you know everywhere is different nowdays, the sizing is different at every shop
As you see on calorie counter is very clear and good and easy to find even without having to put all details
