Why can't I search by Brand.
Prior to the upgrade, I would swear I could enter the brand in the search window and get back all the items of that brand. In any event, it would be a really good feature.
Not having it promotes bad behavior as some people work around it by entering the brand name both in the food name field and in the brand field and others don't creating multiple entries.

I’m disappointed

Inappropriate?The brand was removed as a search option because it provided more accurate search results. Before, if you searched for "Apple", an actual apple wouldn't show up until result 10 or so.
We will be tweaking our search algorithms to try to produce better results. We hope to be able to support brand searching, without compromising search accuracy, in the near future.1 Comment

I understand the goal, but I am not sure this is going to meet it. People seem to add the brand to the name which defeats this approach and promotes inaccurate use of food entry. Since the functionality was there before, I got very used to it. Slickest would be an Amazon like search for food (book), food name (title), and brand (author) that grouped results accordingly. A lower tech alternative would be to just make it an option when searching. In an event, I look forward to the "near future"!
