    You will find this a lot with various foods, my big issue is Sodium most people have difficulty in sorting out mg Sodium in relation to salt some foods end up with 100g salt in 50g of food.
    You must remember that most foods are inputted by people that are not dieticians so are copying labels and typo's are common. Best to use as a guild line and not rely on for accuracy.
