How do i work out syns?

[st2826]

For example, somewhere on here it says a packet of old el paso taco seasoning is 4 syns, so does that mean you would have to eat the whole lot for it to be 4 syns or if it serves 4 people it would be 1 syn per meal?

If the packet is 4 syns and you ate it all you have had 4 syns if you share between 4 people you have had 1 syn, share between 8 its half a syn

Thought this might be helpful. Got it off SW website a while back. I keep it as a note in my phone for when I'm shopping etc. Bare in mind obviously free food values for working out syns but it's handy if you fancy a cake or chocolate and you don't know the syn value. It saved me from eating a bakewell tart at my mums last week! Lol
