BCC Nutritional Data
Original post
I'm sure I'm missing something really bone-headed here, but I would appreciate someone explaining to me how the nutrition label on a BCC meal works.
Example:
Cottage Pie
Serves per pack 1
Net Weight: 90g
Preparation Add 245 ml water
Serving Size: 335 g
Nutritional Information
Per Serve Per 100g
1851kJ 553kJ
443kcal 132kcal
All I'm interested in is the calorie content of this one person serving. Serve size is 90g. 100g of the same stuff = 132 kcal.
But this label seems to be suggesting that merely adding 245 ml of water to the 90g serve jacks the payload up to 443kcal.
What am I'm missing?

MSG has a flavour all its own Its not sweet salt bitter sour but Im trying to think of the word but it means savory
Chinese restaurant syndrome has been officially debunked but for the 9% of people it affects its very real
If you cant take it you are better avoiding it.
I have a similar problem with black bean sauce and now avoid it more than I would the plague. Especially if there is no convenience 10 minutes from the restaurant. First time I thought food poisoning so I cooked it at home. A truly literal version of fast food.
