Unhelpful labelling and too many hypos!

QUOTE So, I decided to have a dark chocolate kitkat, very nice it was too. However, the carbs are shown per 100g, but it doesn't tell you how much each bar weighs! I had to go ad weigh it and worked out that it is around 12g carbs. Think I will email Nestl? and point out the problem! QUOTE

Just to put you in the picture, the law says that if you choose to give nutritional information, you have to do it in a certain way, quoting per 100g is obligatory, but 'per portion' is not! There are loads of products that fall into this category, very frustrating I agree - I'm sure kitkats used to have a per portion value.

I'll have to think of something ludicrous, but with a tiny element of plausibility and disguise it in lots of mysticism, ancient remedies and pseudo-science. I think it might involve rhubarb...😉

Maybe the central plot point should be a massive stash of baked beans under the Vatican, threatening to "blow" the place away. And in order to work out where it is, our hero has to race against time to find every Cornetto? salesman in Rome, then work out how to turn their locations into a join-the-dots picture imparting a vital clue. 😉

Well, it makes more sense than anything Dan Brown ever wrote. 😛

Robert, I hope you haven't stayed up all night puzzling over this! 🙂

When I start my creative writing module in two or three years I should get a distinction if I come here for inspiration🙄D The plot will need to include rhubarb and cornettos🙄

Possibly even a rhubarb cornetto... Just one, mind you 🙂
