Posts: 24
I am a beginner in counting calories and at the moment I'm struggling a bit to see if the calories I counted are accurate and correct. Please can you tell me if I am right or wrong in my food calorie calculations below. I would kindly like to know the calories in each full packet not per 100g. I have posted the links below for each of the food items, much appreciated & many thanks 
per full packet calories:
Asda Butchers Selection Beef Mince Extra Lean = 305 calories
ASDA Silverside Beef = 154 calories
ASDA Extra Special 4 Venison Burgers = 584 calories
ASDA Butchers Selection Turkey Breast Diced = 432 calories
Wild West Spicy Beef Jerky = 75 calories
TOTAL CALORIES: 1550

I checked the first one for you (the beef mince extra lean) and you've got that right, 305 calories for the entire 250 g package.0

great!
how did I go on the other items? are my calculations right?0 -
I suggest you first log and log on mfp all of your foods until you finally memorized almost all foods.0
-
look on the database, it should say per pack or per xxxg... or look on the actual packet of food....0
-
confused as to why you would not just look in MFP database …or google these items?0
