Plant-based spreads: Nutrition Facts and Calories
This category includes a variety of spreads made from plant-based ingredients, offering alternatives to traditional dairy-based options. You'll find products like vegan margarines, plant-based butters, and other savoury or sweet spreads derived from sources such as nuts, seeds, or vegetables. When choosing a plant-based spread, it's helpful to check the nutrition label. Look at the fat content, paying attention to saturated fat levels, as recommended by the NHS Eatwell Guide. The ingredient list can also provide useful information. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so those appearing earlier have a greater presence in the product. For spreads where oils are a primary component, noting the type of oil used can be informative. The salt content is also listed on the label; the government advises adults to consume no more than 6g of salt per day. Checking the sugar content is also advisable, as free sugars should not exceed 5% of your daily energy intake. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
