Portuguese term or phrase: bola mistura
Hi,

I am translating a marketing text about how to reduce cholesterol, and there are lists of food equivalents. One of them goes:

1 carcaça =

=1 ***bola mistura*** =1 fatia de pâo de caseiro = 1/2 pâo integral = 4 tostas ou bolachas àgua e sal quadradas = 5 bolachas Maria torrada, integral ou àgua e sal redondas

I have also posted "carcaça" as a separate question.

I should already have delivered this job, so if anyone who knows Portuguese food can help straight away I'll be eternally grateful!!

Thanks in advance and kind regards
