david_je Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Many products on supermarket shelves have nutritional labels both on the front and on the back, mostly in Thai, and the info does not appear to be the same. Can someone explain pls? Example here. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonray Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 The first pic is total amounts (5 servings) the second is per serving amounts (divide first pic amounts by 5) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezzra Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Since it is an import product google it at the company's site i'm sure all the relevant info are there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it safe to say then that in all such products with front and back labels, the front is entire product and the back is each serving? I see the back label is percentages of recommended daily intake. I assume front label also uses the same measure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will B Good Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Waste of time re: energy content. The best idea I ever saw....very quickly squashed by food manufacturers.......... was labels indicating how many miles you would have to run to 'work off' a single serving........pure genius.

I'd assume so but I only looked at your single example and did not do a comprehensive survey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which piece of the nutritional information in particular are you interested in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
