I went down to the cafeteria to buy lunch, and decided to make a monster salad.

Now that I'm paying attention to nutritional info, I took a look at the fat grams/calories in the salad dressings.

The card next to the balsamic vinaigrette said that one serving had *45* grams of fat.

That has to be a misprint/typo, right?? I mean, even the thousand island dressing didn't have that much. All nutritional info I've found online has been considerably less than 45 g/serving.

Responses:

I find it doubtful that the entire serving would weight 45g. 2 tablespoons is only 28.3 g -- nm - Ender Jan 12, 09:32
they making that dressing with pork lard? -- nm - Reagen Jan 12, 09:25 1
- One serving of pork fat isn't 45g of fat. (nm) - musubi Jan 12, 09:29
Let's see, my jar of Jif PB says 16g of fat per 2 Tbsp - con_carne Jan 12, 09:25 5

  - No idea why I made this connection :-) -- nm - con_carne Jan 12, 09:33
- 2 tablespoons is 28.3 grams, so yes it's totally outlandish. -- nm - loosilu Jan 12, 09:27 2
  - Well, now my ? is what is the dressing's serving size -- nm - con_carne Jan 12, 09:29 1
    - normally 2 tbsp. -- nm - loosilu Jan 12, 09:29
I don't use salad dressing. - Rorschach: 03/06/09 Jan 12, 09:25 3
- Not even good old oil & vinegar? :-) -- nm - con_carne Jan 12, 09:26 1

for balsamic? must be a typo. -- nm - loosilu Jan 12, 09:24
it sounds right. ALOT of fat in some dressings -- nm - Beaker Jan 12, 09:23 1
- I doubt that a serving is even 45 g of dressing. -- nm - loosilu Jan 12, 09:24
Maybe it was 4.5g? -- nm - JaxSean Jan 12, 09:23
