How Much Mayflower Gravy Can I Have On Slimming World?

At 3 syns for 100g, you could have up to 500g of mayflower gravy when prepared before using all of your daily syn allowance, making it a great low syn gravy choice. Mayflower gravy is low in syns thanks to its low fat and sugar content, containing minimal oil.

This gravy type is high in salt, however, having 1.2g a serving like most gravy types, so we would suggest having it in moderation.
