EU nutrition claims

  • Low salt: 0.09 g salt per 100 g (limit ≤ 0.3 g)

Per 100 g of the finished dish, worked out from the nutrition per serving and the lowest likely cooked weight (about 180 g a serving), so the true values are, if anything, lower. Thresholds from the Annex to EU Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006. How we decide

Free sugars

Sugar (daily guide)

11.8 g per serving

23.6 % of the 50 g daily maximum · 47.2 % of the ideal 25 g

Free sugars under 50 g a day, ideally about 25 g, based on WHO free-sugar guidance (not endorsed by WHO). The share shown is the share of one serving. WHO
