syn help please x

Does anyone know the syn value for Ambrosia Devon Custard tinned variety? Unfortunately not the low fat version so just need to know whether I should avoid?!

Grateful for any advice.

I used to really like the Muller light yogs but I have been Veggie for a few years and they are not veggie friendly :-( They use either pork or beef gelatine in them, as do a lot of the yoghurts, so I get really stuck for deserts!

I have bought a WW Heinz Toffee Apple Crumble frozen desert to go with the custard, you don't know the syn value for this by any chance? Have been looking on the forum and not come across it yet. Maybe it is a new product?

P.S. Going to have to get the scales out for the custard to make sure I stick to the 100g!

i could never be a vegetarian lol i luv meat .... i used to have an ex who said he was a vegetarian ... but loved jelly ! .... i asked him how he was a vegetarian if he ate gelatine and he asked me what gelatine was ! lol .... it was a relationship i knew would never last from that point !

Thanks for the info. So the crumble and the custard together added up to 14.5 syns ! Oh, dear! Still under my syn allowance and it was super yummy but I don't think I will be making a habit of it!

Was Veggie in my teens for a few years, then had few years off and then went back to it overnight. Saw some programme on channel 4 which put me off. I don't miss meat though now and there are far more veggie products about and quorn is for the most part really nice. It just annoys me when you find meat products in things that you really don't expect them to be in - e.g. Muller Light! Used to live on these at one stage, especially the lemon cheesecake one. Not even sure if they still do that one!

Thanks for all your help. Hopefully we will both see some good losses this week, fingers and toes crossed x

I love the banana and custard flavour, though I find it tastes like a better version of vanilla :S

I've possibly become used to the taste as it is the only flavour I like...
