It almost seemed as if the figures should be opposite. 34.7g of fat and 4.4g of sugar? I don't know. I will remove the nutritional information and try to find a better calculator.Marie Raynerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407913432222377267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-82666017667027578962015-12-23T13:39:59.682+00:002015-12-23T13:39:59.682+00:00Hi again Marie,

The carbohydrate in the pasta should be mostly starch and nearly 0 as sugars, so it's difficult to see how you could have 34.7 g of sugars per serving.<br /><br />Maria.<br />westessexdelihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15777326540076021983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-36916043928750638172015-12-23T13:29:18.081+00:002015-12-23T13:29:18.081+00:00Fair point.

It says 20g per serving on the pack, so with 100g, you could reckon on 20g of fat, but at a third less the fat and calories of regular cheese, it's still better than the other kind.Marie Raynerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407913432222377267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-24458144240460160202015-12-23T13:27:31.583+00:002015-12-23T13:27:31.583+00:00Thanks Monique. xoThanks Monique. xoMarie Raynerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407913432222377267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-3773273172687816932015-12-23T12:52:44.745+00:002015-12-23T12:52:44.745+00:00Ah, but how many grams of the low fat cheese is a ...Ah, but how many grams of the low fat cheese is a serving according to the packet?westessexdelihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15777326540076021983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-9760067691657877012015-12-23T12:48:14.749+00:002015-12-23T12:48:14.749+00:00Looks great!Looks great!La Table De Nanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04358539954508050792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-61725190864411857332015-12-23T12:13:21.566+00:002015-12-23T12:13:21.566+00:00No, they aren't fat free West Essex. I just ...No, they aren't fat free West Essex. I just copied the nutritional values from the program which I used to calculate calories etc. I used Kerry Low Low medium Red mix which has 4.4g fat per serving, which actually isn't that bad. Eggs don't contain fat as such, although they do contain cholesterol in the yolks, but two yolks spread over 4 servings wouldn't be too bad I wouldn't think. In any case this has to be way lower and better for you than the regular stuff and the fact that it's really delicious is a bonus!

You would get that much fat just from the eggs.
