How the list is built
- Quantities are treated as per serving and multiplied by the servings you set for each meal.
- Items are merged only when the unit and name match exactly; unknown formats are listed with a manual-check note instead of a guessed number.
How this tool works
- Ingredient quantities are per serving and multiplied by the servings set for that meal.
- Lines are parsed as 'quantity unit name'; rows that do not match are listed with a manual-check note rather than a guessed weight.
- Items merge only when the unit and ingredient name match exactly after lower-casing.

Questions & answers
Why do two similar ingredients stay separate?
Merging requires the same unit and the same name. '200 g pasta' and '2 pack pasta' stay separate so the tool never silently converts volume to weight.
What does 'manual check' mean?
The line did not match the quantity-unit-name pattern. Its name is still listed, with quantity zero, so you can fill it in yourself.
Is this a nutrition calculator?
No. There is no food database behind it. It only adds up quantities you typed.
