And any halfwit knows what 1,532 x 0 is. This is the only oil I’m using from here on out!

That’s a lot of servings!

lol there’s no way you could get 6 and a half minutes of continuous spray out of that can

These kinds of products are exactly the reason why people will swear up and down that they’re counting calories and only eat 1200, but somehow just magically can’t lose weight

0.25g fat should still be 2.25 calories no ?

Shamee they’re allowed to round down for anything less than like 5 calories

For anyone interested, it would actually be about 3000 calories for the bottle

i’m so glad my country requires “per 100g” nutritional information on products

Yes of course. Oil, the most caloric food on the market, has zero calories. That checks out.
“Serving” is a ridiculous term.

It looks like they found a way out! There are no calories in tiny amounts, but who uses a 1/4-second spray?

It’s so fucking insane that the FDA doesn’t mandate a standardized size for nutritional info. In the EU it has to be 100 (g or ml) so it’s easy AF to see fat, salt, carbs content for any and every product. They can also add ‘serving size’ but that’s a second line.

its wonky math for regulatory purposes. washer fluid is considered a flammable liquid for transportation purposes even though its too dilute to ever burn.
my guess is they just estimated what an average spray was going to be then divided the amount of oil in the can by that

Are you all spraying this directly into your mouths or something? A 2-second spray into a baking dish or half a second into a frying pan would be so few calories, it’s negligable

Anything is zero calories if you don’t use any 🤷🏻♂️

I’m sure it is as close to 1 as they could fudge with the serving size. .9 would be my guess

Drink it all and see if they re right

The Tic-Tac Strategy. Tic-Tacs are literally pure sugar, but have “0” calories on the label. Tic-Tacs are slightly less than 0.5 g (and thus have slightly less than 0.5 g of sugar), which the FDA allows them to round down to 0, and calculate the calories therefrom.

What bothers me is the nutrition facts table states that there are 1532 servings, seems like they’re confided enough that you can spray 1532 times.
Also… Wouldn’t it be simple to put measurements per bottle as there are 0 calories for each servings?
Nickthedick3 on
Well, 0 x anything is still 0, so drink away!

If that serving info is right and it has 383 grams of oil, the bottle would have 3283 calories

I’m sometimes glad that in eu we have declaration of nutrition per 100g of product
