[ally7997]

So I've been so good today but was out driving today and was starving so ended up having the McDonald's crosscuts or whatever they are called no wondering how many syns? Anybody know, i also can't get on the McDonald's website to check cals etc!

Would love to help but I have no idea what you mean by crosscuts?!

The only word I can think of which is similar is croissant. Not very similar, even so. And I don't know whether McDonalds sell them as I never go there.

Because it wouldn't load on my phone and didn't have access to a computer.

Aha - found them!! They are called Crisscuts.

Product Nutrition :: McDonalds.co.uk

"Crispy coated potato Crisscuts served with a sour cream and chive dip."

Per portion - 295 calories, 3 g protein, 16g fat, 33g carbohydrates, 3g fibre, 1.9g salt

Unfortunately, they don't say what the portion size is, so it doesn't appear to be possible to work out the nutritional value per 100g, which is what you would need to put them through the syns calculator.

I think it would be about 15 syns per portion if you go on 295 calories and 1 syn per 20 calories

That theory only works when there's no free food!

I thought you could use the calculator per portion? Oh well it's done now!

Are these those lattice potatoes that they doing now...think they are at least 16 syns as deep fried ..not a good choice but suppose if syned that enjoy

They are 15syns hun, 295 divided by 20= 14.75 x

They are 15syns hun, 295 divided by 20= 14.75 x

That formula only works where there is no free food allowance! And as they are chips, they have potato! As the member a few posts up has already said

Oh right I have been counting mine like that no matter what is in them just to be safe... because after they have been fried I doubt there is much potato left in them haha, you are right though but Im going to keep doing mine like this x
