If you want to have one canoe biscuit during a TV night, start by choosing a portion size that suits the occasion: Albert Heijn lists a 45 g portion for AH Roomboter kano's, while Jumbo lists 55 g for Kano's met Roomboter. Both come in packs containing multiple portions. So check how many biscuits are in the pack and whether they are individually wrapped. If you have allergies, read the ingredients on the packaging too.
A stated portion size helps you work out what one snack occasion means. Albert Heijn lists a 45 g portion for AH Roomboter kano's, while Jumbo lists 55 g for Kano's met Roomboter. Also check how many biscuits are in the pack and whether they are individually wrapped.
If you want to spread a pack across several TV nights, check the total weight, the number of biscuits and the storage instructions once opened. The pack weight alone won't tell you how much one biscuit weighs.
If you have an allergy, the current ingredients and allergen information on the packaging is what matters. To compare the nutritional values of similar canoe biscuits, use the figures per 100 g: portion sizes differ between the Albert Heijn and Jumbo options.
Start with how much you want to eat during one TV night. Then check whether the pack will suit you for future evenings too, and read the label if needed.
