Del Monte Pinapple Chunks

[Sarah-Jayne]

Im confused...

Why does Del Monte Pineapple Chunks in own juice be 3.5 syns ger 100g?? I thought it was a nautural and free product?

Luckly I havnt opened it yet!

I don't know why tinned fruit in juice is synned. Even if you don't have the juice! I have a tin of grapefruit in the cupboard which I haven't opened as I don't like having to syn it!!
I think the syns are because of the juice, I've looked in the book and it says if you use it as a HEX choice the weights include the juice. I wonder what it is drained?

Even more confused now!

Being completely honest, I never syn tinned fruit! I know this is not strictly SW but common sense has to apply! It's like having a baked apple- I refuse to syn it- it's just an apple, for God's sake!

lol

I know! It seems really silly but I am trying to be really strict with myself and go by the book lol. Maybe i will eat it and syn it as tonight's snack in replacement of my Jaffa Cakes lol.

 

[cocktailprincess]

Sorry- Jaffa cakes would win every day! lol

It's something to do with natural occurring sugars, I can't remember off the top of my head. I shall do some research and come back with a truthful, but stupid answer!

I've always said, if you use any food as syn-free and loose carry on, if your weight loss suffers then maybe start syning!

 

[Sarah-Jayne]

I would prefer Jaffa Cakes but ive bought this stupid tin of pineapple now so it would go to waste lol

Thanks Squiddie!

does that mean if i eat a chocolate bar tonight and lose weight tomorrow, i can start counting chocolate as a free food?! *crosses fingers*

 

[Sarah-Jayne]

LOL I like your thinking Beki

 

[squiddie]

Try it see what happens

 

[Sarah-Jayne]

Im too scared to not syn it lol

 

[Sarah-Jayne]

Need some advice please! Shall I syn this pinapple or not???? I'm eating it now!!!!!!!

 

[Sarah-Jayne]

Anyone? Sorry! Just wanna start writing my dary for the day and needing something else to eat as im still hungry lol

 

[clare82]

I reckon, if in doubt, syn it, then it can't do any harm. I know you've probably eaten it now though!
