Who are these pack sizes for?

Coffee drinkers who want to split their supplies

Would you like to keep taai-taai at home and at work, or share it with someone? The two separate bags in the Albert Heijn 2-pack let you keep one sealed while you use the other.

Lunchbox and office snackers

A 500 g bag gives you enough to set aside portions for several working days or colleagues. Before buying, check the storage instructions for what’s left once the bag is open.

Shoppers checking ingredients and allergens

Read the label for the specific variety you’re buying. The 500 g PLUS taai-taai mentioned here lists wheat, rye and milk, among other ingredients. Don’t rely on the information on a different pack.

What should you look for in a pack?

First decide whether you want to split sealed bags, then consider how much taai-taai you expect to use from each opened bag.

What to consider What to check before buying Who it matters to
Splitting sealed bags Check how many separate bags there are and the contents of each. The Albert Heijn 2-pack contains two bags of 500 g each. If I want to keep taai-taai at home and at work, I like to leave one bag sealed; around 29% of consumers prioritise splitting sealed packs.
One shared supply Consider whether a 500 g bag suits the number of people and coffee breaks you’re buying for. When several people are sharing the same supply, I want to have enough in one bag; around 36% of consumers prioritise a shared supply.
A smaller amount Compare 250 g and 500 g based on how much you expect to use, and check how to store the bag once opened. For a few days of commuting, I don’t want to be left with an open bag for too long; around 21% of consumers prefer a smaller amount.
Ingredients and allergens Check the ingredients, listed allergens and any warnings about possible traces on the pack for the variety you’ve chosen. If I need to avoid certain ingredients or allergens, I need to be able to check this particular pack; around 14% of consumers prioritise checking this information.

Common mistakes

  • Assuming a 2-pack contains individually portioned snacks

    The Albert Heijn 2-pack contains two separate bags of 500 g each, not individually wrapped portions for taking on the go.

    Check the contents of each bag and portion some out yourself if you want to take taai-taai with you.

  • Relying on an old product page

    The Jumbo pages mentioned mark their taai-taai varieties as no longer available in the online range. Ingredients and allergen information can also change.

    Check whether the variety you want is available, then read the label on the pack you actually buy.

  • Treating ‘contains’ and ‘may contain’ as the same

    A listed ingredient and a warning about possible traces provide different information. The PLUS product details include both types of statement.

    For the variety you’ve chosen, read both the ingredients list and any warnings about possible traces of allergens.

Frequently asked questions

Is a 2-pack more convenient than one 500 g bag for coffee on the go?

A 2-pack is handy if you want to split sealed bags between locations or people; the Albert Heijn pack contains two separate 500 g bags. If everyone is sharing the same supply, one 500 g bag may be enough.

Should I check the allergens again if I’ve bought the same taai-taai before?

Yes. Whenever you buy it again, read the label on the pack you receive. Albert Heijn and PLUS state that product information, including ingredients and allergens, can change.

How should I store an opened bag of taai-taai?

Follow the storage instructions for the variety you buy. The PLUS product pages mentioned recommend storing it in a cool, dry and dark place; the Jumbo pages mentioned advise resealing the pack after opening.

What does a warning that taai-taai may contain an allergen mean?

This kind of warning refers to possible traces and is not the same as listing an ingredient. So, for the specific pack, check both the ingredients and any warnings about possible traces.
