You can use De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes, 270 g, as a sweet topping, but the nutritional information doesn’t support any specific benefit before exercise. If you’d like to serve them in glass, choose a separate jar with a lid and check that the contents will fit: the 270 g weight doesn’t tell you what size jar you’ll need. If you avoid wheat or gluten, always check the current label.
If you want to sprinkle De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes on bread, crispbread or yoghurt before exercise, the portion information can help you judge how much to use. Jumbo lists 5.5 g of carbohydrates per 6 g, of which 4.7 g are sugars.
You want to transfer the 270 g pack into a glass storage jar that you can seal and use easily. Check that the contents will fit before choosing a jar size.

| What to consider | What to check before buying | Who it matters to |
|---|---|---|

| Wheat and gluten | Read the ingredients and allergens on the current packaging.
