Common mistakes
-
Assuming taaitaai is a complete breakfast on its own
A pack of taaitaai alone won’t tell you whether your breakfast suits what you want to eat that morning. Albert Heijn and PLUS list sugars in the nutritional information for the varieties described.
Check the nutritional information per 100 g and per portion, then decide how taaitaai fits into your breakfast.
-
Relying on an allergen label you read previously
The Albert Heijn and PLUS varieties described list cereals containing gluten and milk; information about the possible presence of other allergens may vary between products.
Check the ingredients and allergen information on the pack you’re actually buying every time you shop.
