in Food and Nutrition
I bought beef olives from the butchers and there is no nutritional data available, I tried to look this up on line and the only page I could find that would give the info was this one, http://www.nutritionrank.com/calories-halls-beef-olive-546460 .... I just think that 128cals for 100 g seems very low.

can anyone point me to another source to find this info or does this sound accurate to you?

    My mum makes beef olives with M&S minute steaks and M&S 97% pork chipolata sausages. They work out at 162 calories each roughly, not including the gravy and spuds!

    Had to do some dreaded maths, but each one is approx. 94g raw weight.

    That looks really tasty ,, but not what I had :( I had lean beef sausage meat wrapped in a thin steak ... shame I didn't weigh the sausage meat and steak separately as that would have given me a better idea ..... if I say 60g lean beef sausage meat and 40 lean steak it comes to about 130 so maybe its not too fat out ... I hate not knowing ... arrrrg!!!!!! lol they were rather tasty so maybe I should just go buy more haha
