There is no way its off that much.

Standard for cutting is about 500 calories deficit, for 1lbs lost a week. Lets say 2500 calories daily standard. That's 20%. If food packaging was off by 30%, food nutrition planning would be worthless, but we know it isn't because we see fairly consistent results from weightlifters (assuming they're actually weighing their food and not eyeballing/using a PoS app like this)
