Thanks!

    Yeah... Seems way low. Maybe the entry for a US 1 oz (28g) serving got crossed with the 100g entry.

    The database is user entered and maintained. You can edit it if it's not a 'verified' entry, or create your own private entry.

    Yeah this is written on the actual packet though. I once found this kind of mistake on dried fruit bought from a similar Turkish supermarket in Berlin.

    They messed up. The nutrition listed adds up to ~583 calories. Even for 1 oz it's too low.
