Well, we were talking about sushi...!!
BritMum - Yep, OK, I'm fully aware of the other ingredients in sushi. Let's talk hypothetically then.
Imagine you could buy from Sainsbury's a pot consisting of (free) boiled rice and their (free) chicken tikka breast chunks. With no oil or dressing or added ingredients or anything. The nutrition information would look something like this:
Rice (150g made-up weight): 222cal, 50g carb, 0.4g fat, protein 2.6. Syns Calculator says: FREE (on green and EE)
Chicken (70g portion): 90cal, 2.0 carb, 1.3 fat, protein 17.4. Syns Calculator says: FREE (on original and EE)
Total (220g): 312cal, 52g carb, 1.7g fat, 20g protein. Syns Calculator says: 9.5 SYNS Original, 4 SYNS Green or Extra Easy (NB I did enter BOTH free foods into the calculator)
But if I was doing Extra Easy I would be completely within the plan to buy those two products and eat them together as FREE food, consisting 2/3 of a meal. Conceivably if I had that at lunch time I could have a portion of fruit afterwards which would make up my 1/3 superfree.
Do you understand what I'm getting at?
I'm sorry I even bought this up now, it's just making me cross which is the opposite reason I joined here, haha.
I've emailed SW, shall see if they reply.
