(Hm, almost 2 months between my resp:363 and i's poser in resp:364
so I guess I completely forgot about it...)

That's a pretty tiny serving size - 2 Tbsp. Suggests some kind of
sauce or topping. Or maybe powdered drink mix. (I'm not guessing
at this stage, just thinking out loud.)

Chocolate tends to have fat in it, what else is half sugar?  Some sort of
drink mix with powdered milk in it?  And vitamins added?

???  If it was getting the protein from powdered milk, they're be lots
more calcium in it.  Not sure if you think 3g of sugar in 2T is "half
sugar", or you're just noting that half the total carbo's are sugar.

I will take a closer look at the nutrition facts.  (If it is nutrition
information, the can is out of date, I just learned).

About 20-25% protein, and a lot of sugar, in a small container.  No fat.
Jim is thinking, hmmmm.  No ideas yet.  We can only guess the single
ingredient stuff easily.

Could you let us know the number of ingredients?  Or some other hint?

response 372 of 610: Mark Unseen   Feb 1 00:20 UTC 1999

His Snordship is on the right track.  This food's nutritional profile is
mostly due to it's main ingredient.

Hello, out there!!!  Anybody home???   :)
There's only one ingredient in this mystery food.
keesan
response 374 of 610: Mark Unseen   Feb 28 02:48 UTC 1999

Peanuts?  (Wild guess, but we just bought 25 pounds of them raw).
Is your ingredient whole or refined?
i
response 375 of 610: Mark Unseen   Mar 1 03:16 UTC 1999

No fat & little protein, so peanuts don't have much of a chance.

The ingredient is (as i would use the words) neither raw nor refined.

Carbohydrates (sugar) and protein, high in vitamins A and C, 10 tbps per
container?  Some fiber.  Fruit or vegetable?  Not a seed if it has no fat,
but high in protein.  Not refined so no fat removed.  Dried potato?
i
response 377 of 610: Mark Unseen   Mar 3 03:54 UTC 1999

Yes, a fruit or veggie; no, not dried spuds.

Beans?  What else has that much protein?  Soybeans have fat.
i
response 379 of 610: Mark Unseen   Mar 6 02:15 UTC 1999

Not beans.  This food is not usually considered high in protein.

response 380 of 610: Mark Unseen   Mar 6 03:05 UTC 1999

Half the carbohydrates are sugar, some sort of fruit?  What sort of unrefined
fruit comes in tablespoons?  No sugar added jam?  Apricot jam?  High in
vitamins A and C.  
i
response 381 of 610: Mark Unseen   Mar 6 15:03 UTC 1999

Not apricot nor jam.  Note how i talked around the "refined" issue in
#375.  I'd call it a fruit.
keesan
response 382 of 610: Mark Unseen   Mar 7 02:06 UTC 1999

Dried fruit?  Dried tomatoes?  Is sugar-added not considered refined?
i
response 383 of 610: Mark Unseen   Mar 7 21:18 UTC 1999

Not dried anything.  I wouldn't call sugar-added "refined"....but no
sugar has been added to this food.

Fruit?

Tomato?  Pepper?  Eggplant?
(Solanaceae)
i
response 387 of 610: Mark Unseen   Mar 12 02:47 UTC 1999

Tomato paste.
keesan
response 388 of 610: Mark Unseen   Mar 14 04:27 UTC 1999

Dried fruit, like I said.  We like ajvar, which is Macedonian or Bulgarian
and is a combination of cooked peppers, eggplant and tomato with spices, sort
of boiled down to thick.  Available at big market in spicy or less spicy.
If anyone else is reading this item please come up with a mystery food (and
if you want me to guess at it I do better at single ingredient stuff).
Or I will enter something interesting from an ethnic food store again.  We
just ran out of peanut oil and went shopping.

What does one do with only 2 tbps tomato paste?
