I am using md-autocomplete inside an md-chips. If I type 'a' and then select from the list, the control works correctly.
however, if i don't type any search string and simply select from the list (because i want min-length=0), then the control shows the chip and also shows the contents as my new search string??
<md-autocomplete md-min-length="0"
In your code take this part out md-item-text="item"
