other records on here say theres over 500 calories in a 100g pack but the back of the pack (changed to English) says theres only 80, which doesn't really seem right but 500 calories?????..... theyre in a green pack called ding dong snack mix with chips and curls?

    These are the only Ding Dongs I've ever heard of. 350 for the two cakes that come in each package.

    The ingredient list says it's basically made of nuts, corn bits and peas. The nutrition label says that it's 350 calories for every 30 grams, so for a 100g pack, it is 500 calories.

    Don't trust the sticker calorie changes, they're wrong so often it is crazy.

    The varbs, [protein and fat are pretty much the same on each label.

    carbs = 4cal per gram, fats = 9 cal per gram and protein is 4 cal per gram. So the maths on your pack doesn't work out (the carbs plus protein = 80 cals, not including the 81 cals in 9g of fat). I'd go with the one the other poster posted.
