    Remember it can be 30% off the nutrition info, and it can be heavier than what the package says on top of that.

    Let's be real too - there was a video around a couple years ago where they analyzed the calorie content of a lot of things, and some things were actually twice the calories than what the package says. Sure, it's illegal to be that far off, but it doesn't mean that it's not going to happen.

    Unless you eat out all the time though (or eat a lot of packaged food), it shouldn't be such an issue. Even if you do, just decrease your goal if you're not losing.
