    Hi All

    Sorry, really stupid question here. Hartley's sugar free jelly crystals are 1.5 syns dried per 11.5g sachet.....So it is still 1.5 syns once it is made up, is that right?

    Once this is made up I'm pretty sure it's 1/2 syn per portion

    Hi I am off to pizza express tomorrow ( I know , I know:cool: !!!) What can I do to limit the damage???? Has anyone got any breakdown of syns etc on various dishes????
    I don't mind having salad but any ideas which are best???:eek:

    Can only find details for Pizza Hut. I think the safest thing you can do if you go for a salad is ask for the dressing on the side, as I think dressings are the real thing you cant judge .. the salad without dressing should be reasonably easy to identify any syns :) For example, the syn items are in red below (according to website they serve dressing on side anyway!)
    • Nicoise

      Yellowfin tuna, free range egg, green beans, new potatoes and tomatoes, dressed with olives, anchovies and capers and served with house dressing.
    • Pollo

      Torn chicken breast, goat's cheese, crisp red pepper, mixed leaves, tomato, olives and croutons, served with house dressing.
    • Nostrana

      New potatoes, torn chicken breast, avocado, red peppers, green beans, mixed leaves, parsley and a free range egg, served with house dressing.
    The Romana pizza base looks interesting as its a super thin base, that might reduce the amount of syns as I know it is hugely thinner then Pizza Huts Italian base (.. its barely wafer thin if I remember rightly) so better to have that if you opt for a pizza treat :) Sorry I have nothing concrete to offer you :o

    [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]I'm guressing the jelly is classed as 1/2 syn per portion because you can't divide 1.5syns by 4 but yes, its the same dried as made up.
