Matsuya's Pork & Kimchi Set Meal Gets Nutrition Figures Revised Upward Two Weeks After Launch, with Regular Serving Rising from 815 to 839 kcal
Matsuya has revised the published nutrition information for its limited-time Pork & Kimchi Set Meal, which launched on August 25. As of September 8, calories, fat, carbohydrates, protein, and salt equivalent are all higher than at launch across all three sizes: the set meal (Regular Serving), Only, and Double. The base price remains unchanged at 890 yen. What changed is the numbers inside.
Calories, Fat, and Salt Equivalent Up Across All Three Sizes
The before-and-after values for the set meal (Regular Serving) and Only are as follows.
| Size | Calories | Protein | Fat | Carbohydrates | Salt equivalent |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Set Meal, Regular Serving (890 yen) | 815→839kcal | 27.2→27.4g | 28.3→30.1g | 109.7→111.4g | 6.9→7.4g |
| Only (690 yen) | 411→430kcal | 19.1→19.3g | 26.1→27.4g | 24.8→26.5g | 5.3→5.8g |
The pre-revision values for Regular Serving and Only match those published at launch on August 25. In other words, the original figures stood for about two weeks before being revised upward all at once. For Regular Serving, calories rose by 24 kcal, fat by 1.8 g, and salt equivalent by 0.5 g. For Only, calories rose by 19 kcal, fat by 1.3 g, and carbohydrates by 1.7 g.
The Double (1,380 yen) was also updated this time, to 1,273 kcal calories, 46.7 g protein, 58.0 g fat, 137.8 g carbohydrates, and 13.3 g salt equivalent. For the Double, the figures shown on the official website had already been corrected on the launch day itself, moving from the 791 kcal published at launch to the current 1,273 kcal.
Not Just Some Nutrients: Every Item Moved Up Together
This revision was not limited to particular nutrients. Calories, fat, carbohydrates, protein, and salt equivalent were all raised together in every size. Rather than a single component standing out, the update lifted every item in step.
Still on the Lighter Side in the 890-Yen Range
The Pork & Kimchi Set Meal comes in three sizes within the set meal category: Regular Serving at 890 yen, Only at 690 yen, and Double at 1,380 yen. At 890 yen, Regular Serving sits in the most common price range in the set meal category, alongside the Set Meal of Grilled Boneless Short Rib and the Set Meal of Grilled Beef.
Even after this upward revision, Regular Serving at 839 kcal is lower than the 890-yen Set Meal of Grilled Boneless Short Rib (918 kcal) and second only to the Set Meal of Grilled Beef (806 kcal), placing it on the lighter side of this price range. It also comes in below the Stir-fried Pork with Ginger Soy Sauce Set Meal (850 yen, 920 kcal), which is a step cheaper. The numbers went up, but its position within the set meal lineup remains modest.
Note that the current Only price of 690 yen was revised at the end of August, so this change involves no price movement. The nutrition figures were reviewed right after the price had moved.
Editor's Note
The Pork & Kimchi Set Meal had its price changed only recently, and now the numbers inside have crept up too. It's oddly dutiful how every single item moved upward together.
