Common mistakes
-
Confusing a mini portion with a mini pack
Albert Heijn and Jumbo list De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes in a 270 g jar. So, the pack size won’t automatically give you a small snack.
Check the pack weight and, if you like, measure out the listed 6 g serving in advance.
-
Assuming a small serving means low sugar per 100 g
Jumbo lists 4.7 g of sugars per 6 g serving, while Albert Heijn lists 79 g of sugars per 100 g. The serving size and the product’s composition answer different questions.
Check the nutritional information both per serving and per 100 g, then decide how much you actually want to use.
-
Judging allergens by the product name
The product information for De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes lists wheat and cereals containing gluten. The name alone doesn’t tell you enough about the ingredients.
If you need to avoid wheat or gluten, check the current ingredients and allergen information on the packaging.
