to think this apple strudel is NOT 35 calories per piece?

[CoolToned]

And apparently just 9g carbs + 1g sugar.

I am eating it now and wondering why the label says so.

I want! Does it taste scrummy like it should be more calories or a bit healthy?

There is no crap on the ingredients list which is good

Told ya! Postage stamp sized slices.

40g is pretty small, who would eat that amount!? Sneaky buggers

Yeah but the whole box is just 600grams.

It says per 100 grams:

100 grams = 150 kj = 35.8 calories
13.5 total carbs

Spooky - it tastes light and airy actually so I will not be surprised if it's not calorific but it has cream and sugar and well, the 35calories/100grams slice kinda makes me suspicious.

90 KJ is 21 calories. Where does it say 35 cal? 35 mg of salt???? What does it taste like??

It is a bit weird, I wonder if they've mixed up kj and calories.

90kj is about 20 cals

takesnoprisoners = it says 150kj per 100 grams. I just converted.

It tastes not salty at all.

Ok it says 10 servings at 40g, (can't enlarge picture) that's obviously only 400 not 600g, is the whole label bollocks?

I checked the box again, it says 1 serving is 60grams. I misread it as 40g too.

Dude, you need some more coffee, or better glasses

Surely no way there is 0.0 saturated fat in there either when it has butter and cream in it?

Far more likely to be 350 calories per 100g. Second largest ingredient is butter!

100g of Apple is more than 35 calories. I reckon it's 150 calories per 100g not 150kj making the whole box 900 calories which seems about right.

Maybe I should email them and ask what they're smoking. :D

Is that your blog?

Fat contains 9 calories per gram. According to that label 100gr of strudel contains 9gr fat = 81 calories already ergo that label is bollox.

I wonder whether that company also prints child entry zoo tickets?

There is far more calories in that than you are being led to believe - carbohydrates and protein are 4 Kcal per gram and fat is 9 Kcal per gram.

Therefore - if I read the values correct - protein 1.5g, fat 9g, carbohydrate 12g per 100g - it will be approx. 144 calories per 100g and 864 calories for the whole strudel.

To be completely honest, I would doubt anything on that nutritional data list. The carbohydrate value is ridiculously low - flour, apples and sugar are primarily/solely carbohydrate based, so a value of 12g per 100g would be impossible based on the ingredients list. Not to mention the absence of saturated fats despite having both butter and cream

As a former food development technologist part of my role was to compile legal packaging data, including nutritional data.

Fekin - no, just a random blog I found that actually made me want to try that apple strudel in the first place! :D

Tempus and Bunny - and it's giving me hyperacidity too.

So in 600 grams of this stuff, there's just 215 calories? Well that's bollocks, isn't it?

Are you advertising this stuff? [Suspicious glances at OP]

That is not an apple strudel, it is an apple mille feuilles.

I think they dropped a zero by accident and it's 1500 kj per 100g or 350 calories. That would be about the right ballpark for a confection of cream sugar pastry and fruit.

This strudel is going to be making unsuspecting people fat all over Oz!
