Fellow food counters. I have today made a special trip to the local corner establishment and purchased a fine 285g tin of chopped mushrooms.
Rules are;
5 points for the exact number of mushroom pieces, 3 for nearest guess
5 points for the exact amount of water, in grams,. 3 for nearest guess
Special bonus round!
5 points for the weight of the empty tin, including label, in grams. 3 for nearest guess
Drainage to commence at 12pm on 27/08 so no entries after that
Person deemed to be the overall winner to do the count next to w
Good luck!

For the avoidance of doubt, this young lady, named Samantha of course,will be getting a meal of mushrooms on Sunday evening.
There's no barge pole big enough that would tempt me with Happy Shopper mushrooms, and my standards have always been low

The thing about Happy Shopper mushrooms is that they will grow on you even if you don't like them initially...
Just over a day to go and already 17 guesses in. Still time for many more

20 entries so far.
Drainage begins at 12 today so no further entries accepted once the hazmat suit has been donned.
I've been summoned to high tea at the palace today so will post the results in between canapés and champagne (actually being dragged to a BBQ at some soggy campsite. Might take the mushrooms so they don't ask me again
)

So I have!
Hadn't noticed that you'd posted your figures in a different order.

Nobody managed to get an exact match but we have the following winners
MUSHROOMS
ClaretGeorgina is the closest for the number of mushroom pieces, and gets the 3 points
JUICE
Cubanforever gets 3 points with a guess of 132 for the amount of juice
TIN
We have joint winners for the weight of the tin with both CnBtruntru's guess of 39 and Cubanforever's guess of 43 both being 2 g's away. Therefore both get 3 points
With 2 out of 3 closest guesses I declare Cubanforever to be this week's overall winner.
As BigF has already volunteered to do the next count then I hope that Cubanforever can act as standby in case BigF cannot do it
Hopefully Claretmisterg can update the running totals
