velvetee's Journal, 20 Dec 19

This = almost weird comparison US vs EU. We don't go with servings. I compared the global ingredient list (got the pic from my bf in the US) and it's way heavier for the US sriracha, yet it looks lighter on the "serving side". 30% difference, actually! As we say here, "thought-provoking material". In addition, a bit of lovely food and a nice view from my office. Peace FS.

Fabulous view! And I am not just talking about the fish roe.

The caviar does look good! Your pictures are always great. I think the whole serving thing comes from the way the USDA came about dumbing down nutrition information for the "masses" based on their charts and guidelines. Ive gone to using grams and find it easier to deal with.

Is it the same brand? Yeah those small serving sizes over hear really can lie. I mean there are people who believe there are things like no calorie oil or butter just because their containers say so.

Ripsic thank you so much. I do think it is a trick...I’ve been comparing and honestly 100g- real shit.

5 calories per teaspoon adds up

How many grams is a squirt? About 5?

5 calories adds up how? I love sriracha but not as if I'm drinking an 8 oz glass of it. I would think no more than 30 cal. (2 tbs) at any given time and that's being generous. That view is fabulous. I would get nothing done and be fired. 💕

Liv, no it's not the same brand. It's something I just noticed as one of the differences.

Shea it's not like I am psychotting about 5cal but I think it's disturbing to see 0 everywhere when it's actually not.

L2E probably. It does not matter, actually. We are not drinking sriracha for sure haha

Binky it’s not caviar, we love having different fish eggs as apéro (aperitif). It tastes wonderful with Nordic bread and butter! 😘

DP, you are absolutely right, but I mean, the point is not about sriracha itself but about the serving thing... I think it's confusing for more "dense" food. Yes, the view is gorgeous. Took the picture Thusday night when we were having a beer before leaving work. I do work with fabulous people (which most of my customers are not lol). We are talking about climate change, gravity impact or generation differences as part of the small talk. It's easier to interact for me on a closer level.
