I bought a small tin of deliciousness, and was delighted that it contains one of my five-a-day. Yummy! I then bought a big tin for extra healthiness, but it still said it contains one of my five-a-day.
So I wrote to Heinz to query this: "I was a bit confused that a small and large tin could have the same amount of my 5 a day. I thought that perhaps it would have double because the tin was double the size?"
I got a reply: "Thank you for getting in touch about our Heinz Spaghetti with Sausages in Tomato Sauce. The 200g can is a portion designed for one person. The 400g can is two portions so therefore 1 of your 5 a day for two people.
We do hope the above information is helpful."
I've decided this should be included in my Diary Of A Boring Man book what I'm currently writing - and I also thought I should pass the information on to this group in case anyone else was concerned or confused.
