Asda ready meal contains 1842 calories

DPJames

It's almost your perfect daily intake of food in one meal. Almost 2000 cals, 200g of carbs, 72g of protein, 46g of fibre. This is what I aim for every single day.

The saturated fat is a tad high, otherwise I'd just have one of these for breakfast and then that's me done for the day!

It's an error.

Add the total carbs, fat, protein, fibre, salt and you get 500g.
22% of the contents are the peas.

The 100g values are probably the correct ones for the whole thing (seem a bit low but?).

I have just got back from Asda, and the packaging also says 1842 calories!

Carbs. 203.2g
Fat. 72.0g
Protein. 72.0g
Fibre. 46.4g
Salt. 5.8g


Total 399.4g. (still over the indicated weight of 361g but a long way off 500g)

Am I the only one who can see serves 4 written on the box in the picture of the pie? So by the time it is divided by 4 would be at the same levels as other pies

Cornucopia

Yes you are.

It's a mistake. It's one of 29 single serving ready meals on the "3 for £4" offer.

And how much is it ?

Maybe I misread it (I am looking on phone and even zoomed in the picture isn't the clearest) however the link at the top is just for ready meals and not just single serving. The toad in the hole in the same list very clearly shows serves 2.

Cornucopia

True, but that's only 422 calories for 2 portions.

Hmm.... calories.

This should be banned!

Is there any chance people like you could stop wanting everything they don't like banned and allow other people to make choices for themselves?
