Per HM (MM): a placeholder for the serving of stated size where HM is the household measure and MM is the metric measure. Note: In the case of a single-serving prepackaged product, the household measure is the entire package and the metric measure is the corresponding amount in grams or millilitres, as applicable.
##, ### and #### signs: a placeholder for the amount by weight, the number of Calories and, where applicable, the percentage of the daily value of nutrients per serving of stated size of the prepackaged product. The number of hashtags shown represents the number of numerals typically used for the value. These will vary depending on the manufacturer’s specific product and its composition.
