    Noodles

    So I bought a package of noodles today. It says 44 calories for 60 gr uncooked. Is that even possible? Should I trust it?

      Is it from a legitimate company? Can you look it up on their website to verify? I don't think they can just flat out lie on a nutrition label...

      I looked it up on their website, its the same there. Also the other type with vegetables is 44 calories for the same amount, I'm just confused

      What brand are they? Can you post the website and see if anyone else has tried them?

      I wonder if the 44 is a misprint. I am looking at the 60 g tubs and yes the vegetable says 44 cals but all of the others flavours seem to be over 100 cals.

      I've thought of it, but it says 44 on the package itself.

      Does it give you the other nutritional information on the packet?

      Check calculate from that if its there, 4 cals per g of Carbohydrate, 4 cals per g of Protein and 9 cals per g of fat

      Just checked it, the carbohydrates look wrong.

      All flavours except the vegetable have carbs of 12 plus but the vegetable one is 4 point something

      Looks far too low to me for noodles

      So they can just lie about it?

      Nope not legally in most places (not sure what the laws are in Turkey on this sort of thing are though)

      They can make mistakes though and as I said it just looks wrong compared with the other flavours and on the carbohydrates.

      Why not contact them and check?
