On a label of one of a package that i brought, it said that the calories is 75, but the energy is 123kcal? so which one is the correct amount of calories to put into myfitnesspal since it is not in the database..?

    Can you post a picture?

    Could 75 be the serving size? and 123 total calories . .

    Calories= Kilocalories

    Tried taking a picture but the webcam is crappy & the label is small -_- :\ but here's what it says:

    Serving size - 1.02 oz (34g)
    Calories - 75
    Calories from fat - 0

    Energy : [per 100 g] - = 276 kcal // [per serving] 123kcal

    So that's why I'm not sure which is the correct amount of calories.. -_-

    I would go with the 75 for one serving. (34g)

    I think they're trying to say for 100g you get either 276, or 123 kilocal-- though the math on that dosen't work out.
    Interestingly, if it's 123 grams = 276 calories, one serving (34 g) will work out to about 75 calories.
    so basically, i give up - sorry!

    What are you eating? make an educated guess, or compare it to a similar product?
