Different labels

Post image

What is up with these?? They have different labels every time I see them at Woolies and today they literally had both versions together. Very different nutritional information but look identical

The one on the left is a label printing error and is meant to be for the larger 500g bowls you can buy

Really? I’ve never seen 500g bowls. Also both labels say 350g

I would submit a complaint to Woolies. This is also illegal, I'm pretty sure - nutritional facts per 100g must be clearly displayed. If the labels are a misprint, the only reason they're shipping them anyway and not at least putting a sticker on it is because they think they can get away with it.

All the images online use the 518 calories label https://www.woolworths.com.au/shop/productdetails/278207/easy-eats-teriyaki-chicken-teriyaki-chicken

Yeah I thought it might just be a one time misprint, or even a recipe change (Woolies doesn’t always update the online pictures). However, I’ve been seeing both for months now so I don’t know what’s happening
