Just need to rant about this and get it out of my system. I've been using MFP intermittently since about 2015, and it's so frustrating that it's still riddled with so many seemingly easy to fix problems that bothered me even back then. Their nutrition data, the absolute core of the service they provide, is riddled with wildly incorrect information that they seemingly do not bother curating at all. They don't even program in a simple arithmetic check to see if the calorie total is consistent with the grams of fat/protein/carbs to within a reasonable margin of error.
On top of that the website is slow and janky, taking multiple seconds to handle requests that a well-designed website would handle in fraction of a second (add ingredient in recipe, search, going to next page of items, etc). It seems like their backend must be totally inefficient spaghetti code that a competent team of programmers could optimize much better.
I've been hoping for years that they'll fix these glaring issues, or a more competent competitor would arise, but almost unbelievably neither have happened. If it worked the way it should do, this tool would be incredible.
