Which option is right for you?

Travellers who want to share a bag

If you’re travelling with other people, you can share a 500 g bag between the group. Decide in advance whether you’ll finish that amount during the journey, and take something sealable for any leftovers.

Shoppers with allergen requirements

Regular taai-taai biscuits from Albert Heijn and PLUS list ingredients including wheat, rye and milk. Even if you choose a product labelled gluten-free, check the other allergens on the current label.

Travellers who want to portion out their snacks

A large bag doesn’t tell you how much you’ll want to eat at a time. Check the nutritional information per 100 g and, if you like, portion out what you’ll take for the journey in advance.

What should you look for when choosing?

First, work out how much taai-taai your group wants to take. Then check the label and think about how you’ll store an opened bag while you’re travelling.

What to consider What to check before buying Who it matters to
How much the group needs Check the net weight and choose a bag the travellers can finish together. If I’m sharing taai-taai, I don’t want to be left with a large, unused bag. Around 46% of consumers prioritise choosing the right amount.
Storage after opening Read the storage instructions and, if needed, take a sealable tin or bag clip. If we don’t finish the bag during the journey, I want to be able to seal the rest. Around 27% of consumers prioritise easy storage.
Allergens and dietary requirements Read the current ingredients and allergen information, even on a product labelled gluten-free. If I need to avoid certain ingredients, the label tells me whether these taai-taai biscuits meet my requirements. This is the top priority for around 18% of consumers.
Nutritional information and portions Compare the nutritional values per 100 g with the amount you plan to take. If I want to portion it out in advance, I check the nutritional information rather than treating the whole bag as one portion. Around 9% of consumers consider this their top priority.

Common mistakes

  • Assuming every type of taai-taai meets your dietary requirements

    Regular varieties from Albert Heijn and PLUS list wheat, rye and milk. According to Albert Heijn, a Consenza variety labelled gluten-free also lists oats and almonds or nuts.

    Before buying or eating, read the current ingredients and allergen information on the packaging. Don’t rely on the product name alone.

  • Treating a large bag as one portion

    A 500 g pack is intended to be shared as needed, not automatically treated as a single portion.

    Before setting off, decide how much you’ll take and check the nutritional information per 100 g.

  • Assuming the range is the same as when you last checked

    Jumbo says that De Originele Taai Taai 500 g is no longer part of its online range.

    Just before you set off, check which taai-taai products are available at the shop where you plan to do your food shopping.

Frequently asked questions

Can I choose regular taai-taai if I need to avoid gluten or milk?

Check the current label first: regular taai-taai from Albert Heijn and PLUS lists wheat, rye and milk. A variety labelled gluten-free won’t automatically meet other allergen requirements, so read its full ingredients and allergen information too.

How should I store taai-taai during a car journey?

Follow the instructions on the packaging and seal an opened bag securely. For the taai-taai mentioned, Albert Heijn recommends storing it in a sealed tin after opening; PLUS says to store its variety in a cool, dry, dark place.

What should I consider if I want to take taai-taai in portions?

Compare the nutritional information per 100 g with the amount you’ll actually pack. If you like, portion out a large bag before setting off and take something sealable for the opened pack.
