Fat

Each serving of the dip has 6 grams of total fat. That’s approximately 10% of the FDA-recommended limit for an entire day (based on a 2,000 calorie diet).

Keep in mind, of course, that the nutrition facts are based on a measured serving weight – not by how much we eat in each meal served. So, if you eat more than two tablespoons, the amount of fat increases proportionately.

Sodium

In addition to the amount of fat in this condiment, please take note of the amount of sodium. One serving has 170 milligrams of sodium.

Again, if you eat more (or less) than two tablespoons, then you can adjust the approximate quantity of sodium accordingly.
