 - When logging food, the assistant should run `food_items.py get --name <item>` first to confirm the item exists and show its nutrition info.
 - For new foods not in the catalog, add the item first, then log it.
 - Always present nutrition info back to the user when logging food (pull from `food_items` so the user sees the macros).
+- **Always include nutrition info in food log entries** for any non-medicine type. Use `--extra` with a `"nutrition"` JSON object containing the relevant macros (calories, protein_g, fat_g, carbs_g, fiber_g, sugar_g, etc.) pulled from the food item's catalog entry.
 - When searching the internet for nutrition facts, use USDA FoodData Central as the source, then store the result as a food item.
 - The `--extra` flag on both scripts accepts arbitrary JSON, useful for fields not covered by named flags (e.g., recipe details, tags, notes).
