    "content_text": "Wheat Crunchies are crunchy wheat snacks from KP Snacks, and Crispy Bacon is the smoky, savoury one, with no bacon in it. This is the multipack of six 20g bags, 120g in all, and the pack gives figures for each bag. The full product name on the pack is crispy bacon flavour crunchy wheat snack, and the pack gives a freepost address for KP Snacks.The ingredientsAccording to the published pack listing, the snacks are made from wheat flour (with calcium, niacin, iron, folic acid and thiamin), durum wheat semolina, sunflower oil, a crispy bacon flavour (dextrose, wheat flour, salt, yeast extract containing barley, sugar, dried yeast, natural flavourings, spices, citric acid and paprika extract), potassium chloride and salt.Wheat tubesWheat Crunchies are little hollow tubes of wheat, with a hard, serious crunch. Wheat flour and durum wheat semolina, the wheat used for pasta, make the dough.Bacon without baconThere is no bacon on the list. The smoky, savoury taste comes from yeast extract, dried yeast, spices and the natural flavourings, and the pack says the snacks are suitable for vegetarians.DextroseDextrose, a simple sugar, leads the flavour and gives it a light sweetness, like a crispy bacon rasher. The label gives 4.7g of sugars per 100g, green on the front of pack scale.Yeast extractYeast extract, made with barley, gives the savoury depth. It is naturally rich in glutamates, worth knowing for anyone who avoids them altogether; the pack says no MSG.Potassium chloridePotassium chloride sits beside the salt. It tastes salty but contains no sodium, and the salt figure on a UK label is worked out from sodium.ProteinWith wheat flour and durum semolina as the base, the label gives 10g of protein per 100g and 2g in a bag.Numbers for one bagThe pack gives 99 kcal (414 kJ), 5g of fat, 0.5g of saturates, 11g of carbohydrate, 0.9g of sugars, 0.7g of fibre, 2g of protein and 0.36g of salt for each 20g bag. That is about 5% of an average adult's daily energy reference intake, 7% of the fat and 6% of the salt.Numbers per 100gPer 100g the label gives 495 kcal (2072 kJ), 25g of fat, 2.3g of saturates, 56g of carbohydrate, 4.7g of sugars, 3.3g of fibre, 10g of protein and 1.8g of salt.Reading the front of the packOn the UK front of pack scale, per 100g, fat at 25g is red. Saturates at 2.3g are amber. Sugars at 4.7g are green. Salt at 1.8g is red.Sunflower oilSunflower oil is the only oil on the list, and the label gives 2.3g of saturates per 100g, amber.Durum wheat semolinaDurum wheat semolina, the wheat of dried pasta, gives the tubes their hard, glassy crunch.Spices and paprikaSpices and paprika extract give the bacon flavour a warm colour and taste, and a little citric acid lifts it.SaltThe label gives 1.8g of salt per 100g and 0.36g in a bag, red on the front of pack scale.Carbohydrate and fibreThe label gives 56g of carbohydrate per 100g, of which 4.7g are sugars; the rest is starch from the wheat. Fibre is 3.3g per 100g.Allergens and dietThe published ingredients highlight wheat, in the flour and semolina, and barley, in the yeast extract. The allergy advice says the snacks may contain milk. The pack says they are suitable for vegetarians; there is no vegan statement, and they are not suitable for anyone avoiding gluten. Recipes and factory arrangements change, so check the allergy advice on the pack you receive.Fortified flourUK wheat flour is fortified with calcium, iron, niacin and thiamin, and this list adds folic acid, which is why those five appear in brackets.Six bagsSix 20g bags make a school week of lunchboxes with one to spare, and each bag is one serving.No artificial colours or flavoursThe pack says there are no artificial colours or flavours.
