    Confused...!

    Tesco "lean" stewed steak which is free has 155cals per 100g and 7.5g of fat and 3.4g sat fat, yet the tesco value version has 135cal per 100g, 6g fat and 2.5g sat fat, is it free also?! I can't find the syn values for it anywhere and it's £1 or so cheaper! For a "value" product it's really tasty!
