How would you track these? Weigh the sauce or weigh the powder to make the sauce?

    What do you make the sauce with? Is it just powder and water? Or are there other ingredients? If it is just powder and water, weigh and log the powder, if there are other ingredients, weigh and log the ingredients separately or create a recipe.

    Is the nutritional information on the packet for the powder or for the made up sauce?

    If the nutrition box says "as sold" or "as packaged" the weight is for just the powder. If the box says "as prepared" weigh it after you mix it with water. If it says nothing, it's almost always as packaged!

    Packaging says "as sold", so weigh the powder before adding water.
