1 00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:04,320 Speaker 1: It's a sturfry, something on high rotation in your household. Well, 2 00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:07,080 Speaker 1: because I'm a half as half Malaysian, it certainly is 3 00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:09,280 Speaker 1: in my household. But I do like to make my 4 00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:12,160 Speaker 1: sturfry sauces from scratch. But I get it, we're all 5 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:14,760 Speaker 1: a little time for these days, so we've hunted through 6 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:17,920 Speaker 1: the supermarket to find you the best stir fried sauces. 7 00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:18,720 Speaker 2: Hi. 8 00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,239 Speaker 1: I'm Leanne Wood. H I am Susie Burrow and it's 9 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:23,840 Speaker 1: two of the stays leading dieticians. We bring you the 10 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,440 Speaker 1: Nutrition Counch, Product Review, a weekly chat on new products 11 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 1: and old favorites that you can find right here in 12 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:34,520 Speaker 1: our Aussi supermarkets. So, Susie, I actually don't know if 13 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 1: you're a massive stirfry lover or not. 14 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 2: Oh so much to learn about each other, Leanne for 15 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:43,879 Speaker 2: my sturfry habits. Now, I like a stirfry, But when 16 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:47,199 Speaker 2: I was growing up in the nineties, hokin noodles were 17 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 2: all the go and literally every week we would have 18 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,560 Speaker 2: a hokin noodle stir fry. So I literally am a 19 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 2: little bit traumatized. So it's not something that I routinely 20 00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 2: cook at home myself. It's not that I don't like it. 21 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 2: It's more that I don't sort of go to using 22 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 2: a lot of sauces with things. But if I'm doing 23 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,039 Speaker 2: any kind of fish or sort of chicken, I will 24 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 2: always sort of put a little bit of soy through 25 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:09,400 Speaker 2: the veggies. 26 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 3: But that's it. 27 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,839 Speaker 2: The only source I've got in my fridge is soy sauce. 28 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 2: I don't use a huge number of them. Or if 29 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:17,320 Speaker 2: I was making a sancho bow, i'd use a hOistin 30 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,680 Speaker 2: as well. And I think I mentioned this before. I 31 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 2: because I don't really go and use a huge amount 32 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:24,759 Speaker 2: of sauces, I often will not go down the aisle 33 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:28,199 Speaker 2: and recently I did a trolley on sauces and almost 34 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 2: had a heart attack with how many there are, Like 35 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 2: there's literally a whole aisle. 36 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 3: Of sources, so someone's eating them. 37 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,399 Speaker 2: So I think that even though it's not really my 38 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 2: sort of thing, even though I don't mind the flavor, 39 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 2: it's just not something I'm buying a lot of. I 40 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 2: think that a lot of our listeners will find this 41 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 2: really fascinating because, as I said, when I saw how 42 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,960 Speaker 2: many sauces they were in the aisles, obviously someone's buying them. 43 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 2: So this is really useful and even just having a scan, 44 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 2: I'm learning a lot from this. So I think a 45 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 2: lot of our listeners will really enjoy this session. 46 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: I agree, and so I starf for it. Something that's 47 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: an easy way to get an extra veggies as well. 48 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 1: Just rotate through the different protein sauces. You can do 49 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: chicken one week, you can do tofu, you can do 50 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 1: a salmon stir fry. I just think it's a really 51 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 1: versatile dinner meal that should be on high rotation in 52 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: most households because it is a really nice balanced way 53 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:12,920 Speaker 1: to get in a good mix of some lean protein, 54 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: a good serve of carbohydrate. You could do rice, you 55 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 1: could do noodle, you could do quinoa. You can rotate 56 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: up your carbohydrate portion and then of course you can 57 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: change up your sources as well. So the first one 58 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,119 Speaker 1: we've gone with, and shout out to one of our girls, Amy, 59 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 1: who's been helping us pull together some products as well. 60 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 1: She's done an amazing job this week finding us some 61 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: stir fry sauces. And the first one we've got is 62 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 1: the leecome Key sauce. It's a stur fry Hoisten version 63 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 1: that we've chosen. So this is a traditional what I 64 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,799 Speaker 1: would call a very traditional Asian brand, so you'd find 65 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 1: it in sort of the Asian section of the supermarket. 66 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: And this is something that I would think, you know what, 67 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: this is a great choice because I'm getting that sort 68 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 1: of authentic stir fry taste. So we're going to compare 69 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 1: these sources via one hundred grands today, So we're comparing 70 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 1: sort of very similar to very similar. But let's start 71 00:02:58,040 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: with the ingredient list today. 72 00:02:59,200 --> 00:02:59,519 Speaker 3: SUSI. 73 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: So this one is at Colson Wollast. It retails for 74 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 1: three dollars eighty for two hundred and sixty grams. It's 75 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: not an overly large bottle. And when you look at 76 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 1: the ingredient list, sugar is the first ingredient, which we 77 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: do not want in any product, followed by water, followed 78 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 1: by fermented soy bean paste, which is made up of water, salt, 79 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: soy beans, and wheat flour. Then we've got salt, Then 80 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 1: we've got sweet potato powder. We've got some colors one 81 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: fifty A and one two nine, so they've changed up 82 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,519 Speaker 1: the color of that to obviously make it a little 83 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: bit more aesthetically pleasing. We've got some modified corn starch, 84 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: which I would think would be a thickener, some sesame paste, 85 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 1: some dehydrated garlic spices, salted chili peppers, and lastly some 86 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: acidity regulators. So of course a couple of big hitter 87 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: allergens in there, sesame, soy, soy beans, and wheat. And 88 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: it is a product of China, so it's not something 89 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: that is a strain mate. Now, a serving size of 90 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: this is twenty gram so it's roughly kind of a tablespoon. 91 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: I would say that most people would use far, far, 92 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 1: far more than that when they're actually making a stuff ry. 93 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: But let's go through the nutrition per hundred grams. So 94 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 1: we've got one thousand kilo duels, so it's not something 95 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,839 Speaker 1: that's light or low calorie by any means. It's about 96 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: two hundred fifty calories one point six grams of protein, 97 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: which we would expect. We're not really looking for protein 98 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 1: in something like a sturf fry sauce. Two grams of 99 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 1: fat would less than one gram of that being saturated, 100 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: so that's good fat mix. Now this is the KICKASUSI. 101 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: We've got fifty two point three grams of carbohydrate with 102 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 1: forty nine point seven grams of that being sugar. That 103 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: is a massive whack of sugar. And I appreciate that 104 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 1: the serving size is twenty grams and we're reading the 105 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: one hundred gram panel and per serving size is nine 106 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: point nine grams, so nearly ten grams of sugar. But 107 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 1: I would say that most people would have a hard 108 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 1: time sticking if you're making a stir fry to just 109 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: twenty grams four point seven grams of dietary fiber in there, 110 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: which is good, and I think a lot of that 111 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: comes from the fermented soybean paste and a little bit 112 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: of that sweet potato powder. And this sodium is a 113 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: good whack two five hundred and sixty milligrams, and if 114 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: you looked at the per serving size five hundred and 115 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,600 Speaker 1: ten millig so that sodium per one hundred grams is 116 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 1: more than your entire daily limits should be holy. 117 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 2: And I'm horrified. I'm absolutely horrified. I don't think I've 118 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 2: ever seen so much sugar in a product. When you 119 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:12,919 Speaker 2: just send it to me, I was like, what do 120 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,359 Speaker 2: you mean, It's fifty percent sugar? And you know, you 121 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 2: look at the ingredient list. If the first ingredient sugar 122 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 2: on a sauce. It's not looking good. It's it's terrific. 123 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 2: The only thing that would make it worse is if 124 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 2: it had MSG. That would really upset me. But you 125 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,679 Speaker 2: know it's a context, so a tablespoon, which is hardly anything. 126 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,040 Speaker 2: Like if you're making a pretty coated stir fry, you'll 127 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 2: probably use close to one hundred MIL for four people 128 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 2: at least, I would say at least so twenty a 129 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:43,799 Speaker 2: tablespoons nothing, So it's almost got two teaspoons of sugar 130 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 2: per tablespoon. 131 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 3: Like it's just loaded. Like I'm absolutely horrified. 132 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: Most people would use a quarter of a cup at 133 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: a minimum of sauce in a. 134 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 3: Stuff, right, Oh shocking. 135 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,279 Speaker 2: And you know the Asian sauces are salty in general, 136 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 2: So do you have to be a little bit careful, 137 00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 2: particularly if you've got eigh blood pressure or sensitive to salt. 138 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 2: We do expect that. That's why you've had a big 139 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,359 Speaker 2: Chinese meal. Sometimes the next day you'll be heavier or 140 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,279 Speaker 2: carry some fluid because the salt in the food that's 141 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 2: across all of the ingredients and sauces will retain extra 142 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 2: fluid in your body. Or why you wake up at 143 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 2: two am really thirsty and perhaps when you've had a 144 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 2: big Asian meal or even pizza and foods that are 145 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 2: also really high in salt. But yeah, I just am 146 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 2: horrified with the volume of sugar. So that's a very 147 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 2: simple take home message. If you see the first ingredient 148 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 2: of sugar on a sauce, I'd run a mile. There's 149 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 2: nothing good I can say. I'd give it like one. 150 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,279 Speaker 2: I can't even give it a score greater. 151 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 3: Sorry, right, well, so stay away from this one. 152 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: This is at home. But I'm even quified at the sodium. Like, yes, 153 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: we would expect an Asian sauce to be hind salt, 154 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,559 Speaker 1: I agree with that, but this is this is higher 155 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: than I would absolutely be ever recommending for my clients, 156 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: regardless if they had issues with their cardiaccalp or blood pressure. 157 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 3: Just wouldn't. 158 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be touching this with a tem foot pole. 159 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 4: So next one, it's a pretty good one, a little 160 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 4: bit more punsuzy process is a Lee Compute sauce. This 161 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 4: one is the Celebrate Health, which traditionally I think is 162 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 4: quite a nice brand. It can be a little bit 163 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 4: more expensive, but compared to the Lee Coumky sauce, which 164 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 4: is three dollars eighty at woolwors. This one's three dollars 165 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 4: fifty at coal, so not you know, it's not breaking 166 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 4: the bank, so celebrate health brand. It's the peanut free 167 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 4: sat stir fry. 168 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 3: So I think this is. 169 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: An interesting one with little Meal and her little peanut 170 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: and sesame allergies, So this one I could you know, 171 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: potentially buy for her, which would be nice. So you've 172 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: got a pack of one hundred and seventy five grams 173 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 1: for the little pack for the packet, and a serving 174 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 1: size is forty four grams, so that's probably a little 175 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: bit more realistic compared to the Lee coum key, which 176 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 1: is only twenty grams, but we'll compare via one hundred grams. 177 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: We'll go through the ingredient list first, So we start 178 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: with water, which is a nice sign, followed by onion 179 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 1: and coconut milk. Then we've got some apple juice concentrates, 180 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: so that's probably adding you know, that's a I would say, 181 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: quote unquote a cleaner version of sugar, so it's still 182 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: adding sugar in there, but you're getting it from a 183 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: quote unquote natural sauce. You've got some sunflower kernel, some 184 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: corn starch as a thickener, some gluten free soy sauce 185 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: which does contain soy spices tamoroid concentrate, so that's again 186 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: it's making this product gluten free, so tamoid not soy sauce. 187 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: You've got some pink himalayane salt, some dehydrated garlic, some 188 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: food acid, some vegetable gum as a little bit of thickener, 189 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 1: and some natural flavors as well. So overall, probably I 190 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: would say a better ingredient list in this one. And 191 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: we go through the nutritionals per hundred grams, we've got 192 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: two hundred and eighty eight kilojeels per hundred gram so 193 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: that's what compared to thelycome key was one thousand kilodels 194 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: per hundred grams. This one's two hundred and eighty eight, 195 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 1: So it's significantly less from an energy density perspective. One 196 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 1: point four grams of protein, two point eight grams of fat, 197 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 1: with one point one of that being saturated fat, and 198 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: that's coming from the coconut milk, which is adding in 199 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:50,839 Speaker 1: a little bit more fat and a little bit more 200 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: saturated fat. But per one hundred grams, it is still 201 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: a very low amount. Now we've got nine grams of 202 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: total carbohydrate, was four point seven grams of that being sugar. 203 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:04,200 Speaker 1: Comkey Hoisten sauce was forty nine point seven grams of 204 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: sugar per hundred grams. This Celebrate Health peanut free Salte 205 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: sauce is four point seven sugars per hundred grams, which 206 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 1: is far, far more acceptable. And the sodium is four 207 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty three milligrams compared to two thousand and 208 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 1: five hundred in the leecome Key one, So a lot 209 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 1: low in sodium and a lot low in sugar. 210 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 3: So this would. 211 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:27,439 Speaker 1: Absolutely be the preference of the two. But I actually 212 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,439 Speaker 1: think it's a pretty well rounded product that I like 213 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 1: the fact that they've taken people's allergens into consideration, because 214 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 1: let's be honest, peanut allergies are one of the top allergies, 215 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 1: particularly for children in Australia. So this is a nice 216 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 1: meal that you can make. It's not too spicy, hopefully 217 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: the kids and adults can enjoy it as well. It's 218 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 1: you know, Mum or Dad's making one meal for the family, 219 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 1: not three or four separate meals. So I don't mind 220 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: this product. Susie actually, I actually quite like it. 221 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,839 Speaker 2: It's actually one of the best sate premix stirfry sources 222 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 2: I've ever seen. You know, if I'm making a start 223 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 2: at home, I'll probably used one hundred percent peanut butter 224 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 2: and go from there. But for busy people on the 225 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 2: run who are looking also specifically for low carblow sugar, 226 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 2: it's relatively low in sodium. I think it's a really 227 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:10,679 Speaker 2: nice product. This is a great company. They used to 228 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 2: do it an amazing no added salt stock. I don't 229 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,200 Speaker 2: know if you can still get that. I really like it. 230 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 2: I usually see it in the health food section of Coals. 231 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:18,839 Speaker 2: I don't know if I've seen it in the health 232 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 2: food of Woolies, but I agree one hundred percent. I 233 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 2: would assume it's also gluten free. Did you say that already? 234 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:26,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, it is gluten free. It's gluten free, and it's 235 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 1: bigan friendly as well. Yeah, so I think it really 236 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 1: ticks a few boxes. Yeah, people who you know have 237 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 1: a few of those sort of nutritional needs as well. 238 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:36,079 Speaker 2: Yeah, because a lot of those sauces do have gluten 239 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 2: and so this is one of the gluten free varieties. 240 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 2: And as I said, they've got several in the range 241 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:41,439 Speaker 2: which are gluten free, So big thumbs up for me. 242 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 2: I'd give it, like, I don't know, at nine nine 243 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 2: out of ten, I can't really fold it. 244 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 3: I think it's pretty good. It's pretty good. 245 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd definitely buy it and recommend if people wanted 246 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 2: a quick and easy way to sarte up some veggies. 247 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 3: Fantastic sauce. 248 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, and people would pivot apart saying, oh, it's got 249 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 1: apple juice concentrate four point seven grams of sugar. But 250 00:10:57,720 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 1: I mean, we're using a sauce, guys, we wanted to 251 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,719 Speaker 1: taste good. We're not concernedive it's got a couple of 252 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,960 Speaker 1: grams of saturated fat from the coconut milk, or it 253 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 1: uses a little bit of added sugar with the coconut 254 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,079 Speaker 1: juice concentrate. You want it to taste good, and you 255 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 1: want your whole family to enjoy it, and you know, 256 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: you want them to say, Mum or Dad, that was 257 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 1: a delicious meal, not oh yuck, don't serve that again. 258 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: So I think we just need to take some of 259 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: these reviews with a grain of salt. But I think 260 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 1: this is a really well balanced product overall. 261 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 3: So a big tick from us. 262 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 1: Here at the nutrition couch. And the last one, Susie, 263 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 1: I think is a really interesting one. So it's a 264 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: Cantong black bean stir fry cooking sauce. So I personally 265 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: would look at this brand and think canton Oh, no way, 266 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 1: can that be good? And I'm sure a lot of 267 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 1: our listeners, for whatever reason, we'll probably think the same. 268 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 1: I don't know, I just sort of it's never been 269 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: marketed as like a health kind of conscious brand, so 270 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: I think I just get the negative perception straight up. 271 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: But I actually think this is a really interesting product, Susi. 272 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: So it's three dollars fifty, so they're all around that 273 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: sort of mid three dollar range. The three sources that 274 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 1: we've chosen today as the coals and will worse it 275 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:02,079 Speaker 1: is in a jar that is big. I'm kind even 276 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,319 Speaker 1: to read how big that is. It's way too small anyway. 277 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: So it's one hundred and twenty seven grams per serving, 278 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 1: and there's four servings per pack, so it's probably what 279 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 1: five hundred something grams for the jar, if my must 280 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: serves me right. So let's again compare by one hundred grams. 281 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 1: We'll start with the ingredient list. So the first ingredient 282 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 1: is water, followed by tomatoes from paste. Then we've got onion, 283 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 1: followed by sugar, followed by soy sauce, so unfortunately not 284 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 1: gooden free because of that soy sauce and the wheat 285 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 1: that is contained within soy sauce. It's got fermented black 286 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: beans at six percent, and in that is soybeans, water 287 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 1: and salt. Then it's got some thickener which is cornstarch. 288 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 1: It's got vegetable oil, garlic, gingherpiro food acid, yeast extract, 289 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 1: and some pepper to round us out. So aligen wise, 290 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,319 Speaker 1: it's got soy and wheat in there. Looking at the 291 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 1: nutritional information panel per hundred grams, we've got three hundred 292 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: and fifty four kilodels, so less than one hundred calories, 293 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 1: two point six grams of protein, two point one grams 294 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 1: of fat with only point one of that being saturated, 295 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 1: thirteen point three grams of carbohydrate with eight point five 296 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,559 Speaker 1: or of that being sugar, and seven hundred and fifty 297 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 1: six milligrams of sodium, So significantly better than the leecome 298 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 1: Key brand. Maybe not quite as good as a Celebrate 299 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 1: Health brand, but also when you think about this, the 300 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: serving size of this one is one hundred and twenty 301 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 1: seven grams. That's a massive serving size. So I know 302 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 1: that we said that twenty grams is nothing, but I 303 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 1: also wouldn't be encouraging people to put one hundred and 304 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 1: twenty seven grams of a quarter of the bottle into 305 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,199 Speaker 1: their sturf, right either. We don't want to drown it. 306 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:27,679 Speaker 1: We just want to use a little bit for a 307 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 1: little bit of the taste and the you know, just 308 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: to sort of lightly coate it, not have a drowned 309 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 1: stur frame when we were doing it. So I quite 310 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 1: like this, SUSI. I think the ingredient list is pretty good, 311 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 1: like water, tomatoes, onion. Yes it has some added sugar 312 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,679 Speaker 1: in there. Yes there's a sodium from the soy sauce, 313 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:44,960 Speaker 1: but again, we want to be creating meals that our 314 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 1: family likes. Will it be better to make it from 315 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: scratch yourself? Absolutely, if you're time pored. This one is 316 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 1: probably one of the better ones on the market. And 317 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 1: I've tried it before because it is a traditional sort 318 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: of you know, Asian brand Kantong, and I actually think 319 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: it tastes pretty good. So from a tae perspective and 320 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 1: a nutrition perspective, it's not too bad. 321 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 3: I wouldn't give it. 322 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: A nine to nine point five out of ten, like 323 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,200 Speaker 1: to celebrate health brand, but i'd sort of give it 324 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: a maybe seven seven and a half. I don't I 325 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 1: can't find too many faults with this for what it is. 326 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: You know, I would expect some sodium in there. I 327 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: would expect a little bit about it, sugar in there. 328 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 1: I'm okay with that. If you expect to buy a 329 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: sturf rust sauce, I think that you have to have 330 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 1: that expectation that it's not going to be one hundred 331 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 1: percent clean. 332 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 3: I agree. 333 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 2: I think that when you compare it to what's out there, 334 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 2: which are just so high in sugar as we've seen, 335 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 2: this is certainly a much. 336 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 3: Better option compared to that. You know, I agree with you. 337 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 2: I think that's a massive serving size, so it looks 338 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 2: like you're getting sort of over, you know, two teaspoons 339 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 2: of sugar per serf. But there's no way I would 340 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 2: use one hundred and twenty five twenty seven grams of 341 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 2: sauce per person like I would use like less of 342 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 2: that for the entire Sturf Like. It's really like that's 343 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 2: per serve. So if you're making that for four people, 344 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 2: the sugars come down to three grams only, so it's 345 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 2: actually okay in context. 346 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, they're basically encouraging you as a whole all for 347 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 1: four people, which is it's too much. So I think 348 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: half a bottle would be more than enough for four servings, more. 349 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 2: More than enough if it not a third. And that's 350 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 2: a message actually for everyone listening. 351 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 3: Land. 352 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 2: I can't tell you how many times I have to 353 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 2: say to my clients, what's with all the sauces, Like 354 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 2: they go heavy on the mayo and the chili and 355 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 2: adding a lot of extra calories in. And that's a 356 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 2: good takeo message here. You know, cut back on sources 357 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 2: whenever you can, whether it's tomato, mayo oil to a 358 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 2: certain extent. And this absolutely I could make this last 359 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 2: I reckon three or four meals for four people. So 360 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 2: then the sugar is only about three grams, the sodiums 361 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 2: three hundred, which is what you'd expect. So I think 362 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 2: the key thing is keeping it well sealed, so it 363 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 2: doesn't it keeps well over a long period of time. 364 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 2: You could absolutely freeze these sauces as well, so you 365 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 2: don't end up throwing half of it out. And that's 366 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 2: the same for tomato pisada, so you don't throw them out. 367 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 2: But yeah, I actually think i'd give it about a seven, 368 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 2: you know, and even higher if you could make it 369 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 2: drag it out for many more serves. You know the 370 00:15:57,680 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 2: cost point, but you know you can see compared to 371 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 2: what's out there are certainly a quick scan and avoiding 372 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 2: any kind of added sauce that is got sugar as 373 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 2: the first ingredient is a good reference. And to drag 374 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 2: these sauces out and make the last a whole lot longer, 375 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 2: it means it's going to be part of a nutritious meal. 376 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 2: And if it makes if it means you can have 377 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 2: a stirf I made at home with loads of veggies 378 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 2: and lean proteins and prawns or tofu or chicken breast, 379 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 2: rather than by takeaway, which will have two three times 380 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 2: the amounts of added sugars and salt than something you'd 381 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 2: make at home. 382 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 3: That's a win for nutrition. 383 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 1: Overall, absolutely, And I'm a massive fan of meal preps, 384 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: so I would use a bottle of that over sort 385 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 1: of eight to ten serfs. I'd make extra on purpose, 386 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 1: and i'd freeze it. So rather than just freezing the 387 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 1: sauce by itself, I'd put the noodles in there, I'd 388 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,360 Speaker 1: put my chicken, I'd put my veggies on my tofu, 389 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 1: whatever protein I'm using boxed a quick meal, and then 390 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 1: and then I would freeze all of those portions. So 391 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: I'm just I'm busy. I'm finished client calls at eight 392 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: or nine o'clock at night. I'm just grabbing it out 393 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 1: of the freezer. I'm reheating it and it's good to go. 394 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 1: I then don't have to stumble off a massive work 395 00:16:57,880 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 1: day and it's you know, seven, eight, nine o'clock at night. 396 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 1: Oh no, I have to cook dinner. I've just got 397 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: something that I can grab and go. So I'm a 398 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 1: huge fan of meal preps. So you could either just 399 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 1: freeze the sauce individually, or you could just make extra 400 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 1: while you're doing it, which actually doesn't take that much 401 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:12,919 Speaker 1: more time, and then freeze a whole portion of it. 402 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,439 Speaker 1: I agree, wonderful. Well, I think that that was a 403 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: very enlightening little stroll down the Sturfriy Sauce Aisle SUSI. 404 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:21,919 Speaker 1: I think that gave us a lot of products to 405 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 1: definitely avoid and other ones to go more towards. So 406 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 1: that brings us to the end of the product review 407 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,919 Speaker 1: for another week.
