July 11, National Blueberry Muffin Day
The Food Label Detective:
Otis Spunkmeyer Wild Blueberry Muffin

Can You Eat Just Half a Muffin?


*FDA 21 CFR 101.9 Nutrition labeling of food. (http://bit.ly/29vdc90). FDA regulation allows manufacturers to round number of servings to the nearest 0.5 serving, as long as they use the term “about”. Serving size is based on RACC = Reference Amount Customarily Consumed per Eating Occasion.



 Most people assume one muffin is one serving.
As packaged foods get larger, so does the number of servings.
Read the label - Don't overeat.

The label can be misleading, but it is within the FDA Guidelines.* 


One Serving Size: 1/2 Muffin (57g/2 oz)
200 calories per Servings

Package Size: Net Wt. 12 oz (340g)
6 Servings per Container
One Muffin = 2 Servings (400 Calories per muffin)
