Dry Products

🍽️ Nutritional Profile & Controversy
Energy & Nutrients: Milo is high in carbohydrates for energy and contains calcium, iron, and vitamins B, C, and D . The manufacturer states that when prepared as directed (e.g., 30g of powder with 200ml of water), a serving contains less than one teaspoon of added sugar (roughly 124 kcal), while the remaining sugar content comes naturally from the milk and malt .

The Sugar Debate: Historically, Milo has faced criticism regarding its sugar content. Older claims suggested the powder was up to 40% sugar. In response to health concerns, Nestlé revised its recipe in 2019, reducing added sugar by 26% while increasing the amounts of malt, cocoa, and milk .

🐟 What is Stockfish Head?
Unlike salted, dried fish (like bacalhau), stockfish is dried purely by cold air and sun—no salt is used in preservation. This method originated in medieval Norway and is still practiced there and in Iceland.

Production Process: After the fish is caught, the head is removed, cleaned, and hung on wooden racks to dry in the open air for 3-4 months. This removes about 70% of the water content and concentrates all the nutrients and flavor.

Key Characteristics: The result is a hard, board-like product with a very strong, umami-rich fishy aroma. It is packed with protein, calcium, iron, and omega-3 fatty acids.
