Just wondered how you got 7.5 syns? It'd be more if its 333 cals

But only using 45\100 grams

Yeah I read that, but thy put that it was 7.5 syns for 100g-was curious as to how they'd reached that figure

Sorry, my mistake. It's 7.5 syns per 45g!!!

That's really shocked me as ingredients listed are only herbs n spices. Can't see any oil etc????

Might be worth contacting them directly then-as officially sauces don't qualify for a free food allowance-which is why you calculate them at 1 syn for every 20 cals, but you never know

The ingredients of flava it Chinese marinade according to the packet include sugar, starch and yeast extract.

That'll be where the calories - and syns -come from!
