The ‘Attach to food’ checkbox should be used where the data entered is not variable. In other words, use this box when you want the information to be recalled each time the food is used automatically. Examples of when this box should be ticked include if the nutrient field type is used, or if you are tagging the country of origin or shelf life or other property to the specific ingredient or food. Examples of when it should not be ticked include fields for date, time, or most drop down type fields, as these would usually be required as variable fields so they can be set for each consumption occasion individually.
