OT Whole leaf spinach versus Made with fresh cut leaf spinach
Cleaning my kitchen cabinet I came across a moderately old can of Delmomte "Whole leaf spinach".
Also Delmonte cans marked instead "Made with fresh cut leaf spinach".
Is this the same thing? The listed ingredients are the same: Spinach, water, salt. The newer can includes after "salt", "(for flavor)".
Also the old can had slightly greater diameter and was labeled "Net Wt. 15 oz. *Wt. of spinach 10 oz." The newer can just said "Net wt. 13 1/2 oz. (383g)"
So we get less info than before. I presume because Delmonte volunteered the extra info before and now says exactly what the law requires and no more.
I'm not complaining. I'm sure there are many places where the new rules make labeling less or not misleading. But untended consequences, it mad a quality brand less informative, I think.
Anyhow, maybe you can assume the spinach in your can of spinach is only 2/3rd of the whole weight. OTOH, doesn't water weigh more than the same volume of spinach?
