    Hi Lauraeire_81,

    This is a classic case where you want a summarized count of food items filtered by slicer selections, but only showing one row per food item with the total count. This should not be done using a calculated column. Instead, you should use a measure and build a visual table that responds to slicers.

    Food Count =

    CALCULATE(

    COUNTROWS(FoodTable),

    ALLEXCEPT(FoodTable, FoodTable[Food])

    )

    Add a table visual:

     

    • Put Food in the rows.
    • Add the Food Count measure in the values.
    • Add Country to the slicer.
