Calories in Quorn sausage confusion

[FairyFavour]

I’m trying to work out the calories in a Quorn sausage. The packet says 2 sausages = 154 (typical value pan fried) it suggests cooking in 1tblsp oil. 1 tblsp oil = 120 calories.

Does that make each sausage 17 calories? It doesn’t make sense. Surely they should list the calorific value without adding anything

I need a life

The calorific content is for the sausages only, not the oil. They can't control how much oil you add, if you grill rather than fry, etc so the serving suggestion isn't included in the calorie count.

I count them as 154 calories grilled or oven cooked. I’d rather have a loss than a gain calorie wise so I don’t go over my limit.

Also if you fry in a tblspn of oil you don't necessarily eat the whole amount...

No! It says typical values as pan fried. Surely they are not 72 calories per sausage.

Of course they're 72calories per sausage... 15 calories is about what's in a handful of lettuce.

Actually on the Waitrose website it says they're 114 per sausage.

Use a few spritz of a 1calorie spray, a tbsp of oil is an insane amount

198 calories per 100grams, 250grams = 6 sausages.

82 calories a sausage, this is from their nurtional info from their website

82! That’s more than with the Oil!

The calorie count doesn't include oil, the oil is only a suggestion, personally I don't think they need oil, certainly not that much.

Here it states 155 kcal per 100g and 125 kcal for 2, so 62.5 each. That's without oil or anything added to them. (But different websites are giving different values).

82 calories is nothing, it's less than a bag of snack a jacks and similar to a banana!

Linda McCartney veggie sausages are much nicer anyway.

82 calories is nothing

The calories soon add up!

@PunchandRudy yes of course but I'm guessing as part of a meal, and even if you had three with a load of veg you're looking under 350 calories which is a small ish meal

It won't count the oil. If you wanted to, you could pan fry in anything.

There are different kinds and some are more calorific than others!
I stick to the original ones because they are a calorie bargain.

yes of course but I'm guessing

Yes, yes you are.

It wasn't an accusatory tone of comment, BTW! OP may well be needing to add calories to meet requirements rather than have as few as possible to diet.

@PunchandRudy I think I was more surprised that OP thought that was a lot TBH!

OP is definitely not needing to add calories. OP decided on sainsburys shroomdogs @55 cals a pop.
