I always work things out directly from the packet if I'm not sure, cause got some meat the other day, well lamb mince and pork mince.
If I went by the book (the GUIDE WW gave us at meetings) I would have been totally out.
The lean pork mince was 6pp per 150 grams and the lamb (which wasn't lean|) worked out at more like 6/7 per 100 grams (or something similar) so ridiculous, why they tell you one thing in the book and another on the packet, although most people check, I didn't always used to with meat and it should say in the front of the book as a NB to always double check packets if not sure..
Sorry for going on, and off topic..

My group leader said the things in the book are the average. WW will check points in different supermarkets/brands etc and then average the pp amount. So you do really have to check the pp of everything.

That's the issue, I did sit there in work with the calculator on the website and work it out ... how strange.
