As this contains no free food allowance, you can calculate the Syns by using the formula 20 calories = 1 Syn. Therefore, 100g = 11.5 Syns . . . quite high I'm afraid!

Thanks Stevie, I did this and the rest of the math to calculate that it works out at 1.2 syns per 10g (or two tea spoons), but then saw in my book that reduced sugar jam is 0.5 sysns per 2tsp so wasn't sure if that was right. I only want a little bit in my porridge so one syn isn't too bad, but may change to reduced sugar jam in future

It's probably due to it's "High fruit content" - all cooked/tinned/stewed fruit is relatively high in Syns. But like you say, 1 Syn for a little bit in your porridge isn't too bad at all

I will admit it is a lot nicer than reduced sugar jam, shame they don't sell a strawberry one in sainsburys
