This will depend on whether you want a local cheese thats hard, flavoursome but needs grating,

or

a cheesy local that is great at being flavoursome, wants to be hard, but becomes grating.

Just trying the new "super noodles to go" and although they are rather high is fat (15.3g per serving :shock: ) they are very tasty.

Edit - me and a guest were reading this thread before I posted, surely guests don't come here to read about cardboard based snacks

I discovered my cuppa soup contains (I think) the daily amount of salt a man is safely allowed to consume

They are salty though - soup, not men. Though men can be, but let's not go there

Most probably a bot or spider of some sorts, indexing the site, or Spillers keeping an eye on brand integrity

Oh er

I must admit I really can't understand the necessity to put salt in everything, we've been using the same pot of salt (1kg) for the past 5 yeas and there's still loads left! Gaz ???

Maybe we should make some rather smart defamatory comments the bot won't understand, like: Pot noodles are crap

I've just checked - 1g of sodium per soup. The daily allowance is 3.5g, so a soup contains about 1/3 of the allowance, which is a heck of a lot. I thought the allowance was lower than 3.5g though

Don't you have to multiply the sodium content by 2.5?

And I thought the daily allowance for males was 7g?

Wheres Homealone when he's needed?

Hiya

- still can't get on at home

- you are correct, the Guideline Daily Amount for salt is 7g for males & 5g for females and to convert sodium to salt multiply by 2.54 (58.5/23).

Yup - it's the sodium that does the damage though, and many manufacturers try and hide the actual salt content by just giving the sodium content, which will always be less.
