Does anyone else see that MFP brings up different nutritional value per serving of Aldi products? For instance, frozen corn shows up as 70 calories on the bag for every 2/3 cup, but the website says 100 calories per 2/3 cup.

    The entries in the database are user-generated. People can put whatever they want so you can't always rely on them. Look for MFP entries (they have an *) or verify yourself before you use entries.

    I would go by what it says on the bag of corn. Aldi is awesome though! I'm going there tomorrow to get as much as I can of my Thanksgiving supplies.

    I always double check all labelled food products against the label by the per 100g section. If there is a discrepancy, which there usually is, I go by the label on my hands.
