Galaxy Counters

[GayleH]

Hi guys, anyone know the syn value of the new Galaxy Counters. They look yummy (just like Minstrels but without the crunchy shell) but have yet to buy them in case I eat them and they are awful on syns, so no nutritional values I'm afraid.

Just hoping someone has worked them out already, lol.

Cant believe they brought these back :bliss:

sorry cant help with Syns - but I LOVE them - were my favourites when I was little lol

I was thinking the same starlight=they were my favourite as a child.

 

[louisedan]

not on syns on line-you need to post all the food info for us to use the calculator

OMG!!!! I was only saying to the other half a couple of days ago that I really fancied some of them but I couldnt have them cos they dont make them anymore!! how wrong was I LOL

they cant be too many syns when you think a bag of revels is 8 1/2 ooooo cant wait i'm so excited my mouth is watering as i type

 

[GayleH]

Well, I went and bought some but the only bag I could find was huge, lol (that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it, although they do have cals etc for a 35g bag).
For 100g: 529 cals, 6.8g protein, 59.4g carbs, 58.8g sugars, 29.1g fat, 17g saturates, 1.4g fibre, 0.11g sodium, 0.28g salt

That's all that was on there. I hope it's enough. I will then measure out 100g and count the counters, lol, so I know how many syns in say 10.

 

[louisedan]

26.5 syns per 100g pack.9.5 syns per 35g pack.

 

[GayleH]

Cool, thanks for that. Think I may have to weigh out a few 35g bags, lol.

 

[magicmary]

b ut they r worth every syn just finished a packet lol

 

[funcurls]

Wow I didn't realise they used to exist- I thought they were a new concept!! How wrong I was! For once I feel quite young!!LOLX

 

[Starlight]

They were probably out about 20/25 years ago initially, not sure when they disappeared.

Got to laugh at the ads for 'NEW' Galaxy Counters - nothing new about them

 

[funcurls]

Well 20 years ago I was 13, 25 years ago I was 8, so I think my parents were very mean and neglectful in not introducing them to me!!X

 

[Starlight]

I think they were I think they used to be in wee white packets with animals on the front

 

[*ruby*]

I saw the ad on telly last night, and I thought I remembered them too.

Fond memories

 

[louisedan]

I remember them in the 1960's when I was really young. I fell really old just looking at the date now!!They had a white bag with animals like a giraffe,monkey,elephant but I can't remember the others.
