THE DOWNSIDE

What to keep in mind

  • Contains 578 kcal and 48.6 g fat per 100 g, so portion size substantially affects energy intake.
  • Contains 433 mg sodium, equivalent to about 1.083 g salt per 100 g.
  • Contains 6.34 g saturated fat per 100 g even though most reported fat is unsaturated.
  • USDA does not report total sugar, vitamin E, vitamin K or caffeine for this record; database zeroes in those fields are technical fallbacks, not measured zero values.
  • Peanut is a major food allergen and can cause severe reactions; avoid it completely when medically required and check cross-contact information.
  • Whole peanuts and pieces are choking hazards for young children; roasting oil and seasoning vary, so check the current label and discard rancid products.
