Background. Trying to lose weight via a clamp down on carbs so I decided to try sachet soup for lunch at work. mostly water, not many calories.
Examining the contents some of the wording is confusing.
Total Contents 81g = 4 sachets so 4 "meals" I weighed one and it was approximately 20g so fine with that.
Prep. One sachet add 230 ml of water. A bit runny for me but also fine.
Nutritional information below is where things get wooly. Is below the dry powder? "As prepared" suggests with water but if that is case how would adding more water increase the number of total grams?
If it is a % that would not work either, the total % per portion should go down not up as the dilution increases.
I shall be embarrassed if I have missed something obvious.
