Smart Price Chilli Con Carne (ASDA)

[Maximus]

Just saw this in the SW Syn/Snack book. According to the book it is 1syn (392g can) on Green and Extra Easy yet 5.5 syns on Original.

Is the syn value so high on original because of the kidney beans and chillies etc? as I would have thought the mince content would have made it more than 1syn on Green?

Confusing - or is it not "real mince"

Oh nice work!

Presumably the 1/11th (9%) mince is the syn and the rest is free on green, while the rest is synned on red with the mince free?
