pretty simple, when you look at the back of a bag of any sort of food they have the ingredient info. how many calories, sugars, things like that; how do they know how much is in them?

Simple. Recipe is known, including ratios of all the ingredients. The calorie content of all the ingredients are also known now. So it’s just simple tally of how much calories/item x # of items/serving or bag
