Nutrition Facts
* The % Daily Value (DV) tells you how much a nutrient in a serving of food contributes to a daily diet. 2,000 calories a day is used for general nutrition advice. Protein % DV here is not corrected for protein quality.
The submitted label declares more saturated fat than total fat, which cannot both be true; one of the figures is wrong. Computed from the values per 100 g that Tvt's International Export & Import Co. submitted to USDA, for the declared 130g serving. They agree with USDA's live record (FoodData Central API, read Sep 29, 2026). Check the USDA record.
