Oh god, the curse of the buffet!! I had an individual quiche, 3 sweet chillie chicken on a stick thing (no batter), 2 potatoes, 2 pieces of chicken pakora and a quarter beef sandwich! lol! I have calcualted this in my drunken head as 29 points!! Do you think thats about right!

 

[Starlight]

Unless it was a massive big quiche Id say its nowhere near 29 lol

 

[smilerjen]

ha ha, nooo it was a wee small thing! like the weight watchers one but not the WW one...wasnt even that nice calculated 10 points for quiche, 4 for sweet chilie chicken, 8 for pakora, 4 for potaots, 3 for quarter sandwich...bad bad buffet....

 

[Starlight]

Chicken chillie things if its like chicken satay are pretty low. According to the EO guide a portion of pakora is 6.5 so if you only had 2 pieces it will be only a few points.

You're a star Jennikay! Worth the points! Good job I banked 2 points just in case I guessed 4 points...

Anyone use Hellmans extra light mayo?

I worked it out to be 1 point per 100g making it only 4points for the whole jar... That can't be right for a mayonnaise, can it?

 

[Karenlou]

Yep. One point per 100g. It's because it's so low in fat. Wish I liked it but I only like the fatty stuff so tend not to have it at all

Does anyone know if there are any points in balsamic vinegar?

[jennikay]

My book says there isn't any points in any types of vinegar.

[Karenlou]

That's right, balsamic vinegar is 0 points and it's lovely! I put it in with a tin of tomatoes and cook it down to make a thick sauce which is absolutely delicious

 

[dietingqueen]

Hi can anyone tell me how many points for chicken mince 500g...(uncooked) Thanks x

I have found it at last... 9points i think x

 

[Karenlou]

Yes, 9 sounds right - it's 2.5 per 140g

 

[jennikay]

Ostrich anyone?

I have a 125g steak for lunch, apparently ostrich is fairly low fat so I think I'm looking at about 3 points, but I'm not sure.

[Karenlou]

140 cals and 1.4g sat fat per 100g so 2.5 points per 100g

 

[jennikay]

Thanks Karen

Karen, you are a book of knowledge! Where would we all be without you?

 

[smilerjen]

Had two pieces of Deans shortbread tonight! Little round things, very nice! lol! No idea of points tho! I guessed 1.55 each so 3 in total! ???

 

[Karenlou]

Can't find nutritional values but have found them for another brand of shortbread which comes out at 1.5 per biscuit so that would seem fine.

I have no life it would seem. I do enjoy searching for NVs on the web and translating them into points, saddo that I am
