Mary, i thought tinned toms were 0pp???
Don't want you to diddle yourself out of pp's especially if your drinking tonight, thats another vodka!!:giggle: x

 

[kered]

I thought so too, but I just went by the NI on the tin, and the calculator on the PC, but will double check tonight.

Thanks though hun - anything is worth an extra voddie.......lol.

 

[JanD]

Oh Hell I thought they were 0pp too!! I just assumed they would be tbh - will look in shop book tomorrow. They don't always go by the NI - wasn't Sandra counting pps for grapes going on the NI?? xx

 

[summergurl]

Yep
Any fruit or veg will have pp's if you go by the NI xx

Checked the book. The ones I had were Heinz Whole Peeled Tomatoes in Tomato Juice and half a tin is 0pp, and I had the whole tin, so I will count it as 0pp. Thanks Tanya for pointing this out to me.

Be careful though, because Heinz Chopped Tomatoes in Tomato Juice are actually 2pp per 1 tin, 400g. I am guessing that this is going alone the same lines that Slimming World used on tins of macaroni cheese years ago. If you ate it whole it was free on green days, but if you mashed it up to make a cheese sauce for the top of your potato, it wasnt free. Its all to do with your digestive system working harder to break the food down, where as if its all smashed up, the digestive system is not working so hard.

We had some new Wall Units delivered for the living room yesterday, its looking lovely now. So nice I didnt want to come to work tonight.

Maisey had a good walk today and was let off the lead again on the cycle track - she seems so happy - Bless her.

Oh well, another Saturday nightshift. I wish I was rich enough to retire

Edit - 4 strawberries. Pack of fresh pineapple.

 

[summergurl]

Dont we all!! :fingerscrossed: for the lotto tonight!!!

So what about just cheapo tins of toms? Do we count them? x

 

[kered]

It only lists Heinz in the Shop book, so I would imagine all the whole tomatoes are 0pp and the chopped ones would be counted the same as the Heinz.

 

[summergurl]

Bummer
Thanks hun x

 

[kered]

I was sat in work and fancying pineapple, so I just went over to Asda. I ended up spending £82. £4 on fruit and £78 on clothes Its my first shopping binge in ages, but oh boy, I enjoyed it

Got some leggings, a cardie and a few tops. Pineapple, blueberries, strawberries and plums.

 

[JanD]

HaHa - love it!

Which shop book are you looking in Mary? I can't find Heinz toms in mine. On page 265 it's got a heading of 'Tinned Tomatoes, Puree & Passata' There's only one make 'Tarantella Organic' and the cherry, chopped, plum and passata are all 0pp. The only ones with points seem to be those with other things in like olive oil or sliced olives. ????? xx

 

[kered]

Its on page 265, down the bottom of the middle column, headed Heinz.

 

[JanD]

Oh Yeah!!! lol - next column .... DUR!!!! .... strange though xx

 

[kered]

Yeah, it is strange. Thats the only thing I can put it down to though, to do with the digestive system breaking the food down.

 

[JanD]

I can't see that Mary .. especially when fresh tomatoes are 0pp - not cooked and therefore not broken down at all. And the others in the book are 0pp. I think the heinz ones must have some oil or something in them. I'll have a look next time I shop!! xx

Hope you have a quiet night xx

 

[summergurl]

i sure hope they are 0pp!!

Love the fact you went on a random shopping spree, theyre always the best!! x

 

[kered]

Just the whole ones are free though Tanya, the chopped ones are 2pp.

I haven't looked at the ingredients of the chopped ones, but I will google it now Jan.

Absolutely Tanya, the random shopping is great.

 

[kered]

Mmmm I cant seem to find it.
