Season Sardines - What’s Up with the Change in Macros?
Ok, tinned fish community… Let’s figure out what’s going on here! I often eat Season skinless & boneless sardines… Yes, I know they’re not primo, but they’re cheap at Costco and do in a pinch. I also track my macros.
They recently redid their packaging, but it seems that’s not all that’s changed, despite the ingredients, weight, and serving size all still appearing to be identical. I give you Exhibit A, above. The two photos show a box of the new packaging on top and the prior packaging on the bottom, both front and back.
Spot the differences? I’d like to know how in the world they managed to reduce the calories by 20% and increase the protein by 10%, simply by changing the packaging. Seriously, what’s the deal here?! Is the answer that they were previously selling this product with materially incorrect macros? Or, were the macros perhaps correct before and they’re wrong off now? Not sure which to believe… If any.
