Abstract

What is good nutritional value for money? A 5 oz can of peas costing 4p; a 4 oz packet of frozen peas costing 5½p; or a 2 oz packet of dried peas at 7½p? To answer this question, we have to know two things: the number of edible portions in each purchased unit, and the effect of the processing method on the nutritional value of that food
