my head is going to expload please explain how i would count these carbs in these noodles. half pack as more carbs than a whole pack??? per 100 g as served 22.3g half a pack 31.4g. pack in question labelled 85g
 
Can't make out what you've wrote unfortunately, however some readings are given in dry weight and others are given in cooked weight per 100g.

To work out the carb content you should look at what the product contains per 100g weight, so if it contains 48g of carbs per 100g weight and your portion size weighs 54g then this is how you do the maths:

48g (carbs per 100g of product) divided 100g multiplied by your portion size, i.e 48 /100 x 54 = 25.92g of carbohydrates.....well 26g is near enough :)
