What?? - 2 servings per bag (I eat my popcorn POPPED)
so how many calories do I consume if i eat one whole bag by myself?
*confusing*
... WAIT!! I think I got it ...
One bag = 6 tbsp unpopped or 16 cups popped
both of which equal 240 calories ...
16 cups of popcorn = 1 gal of popcorn ...
my popcorn bag does NOT look like it holds a whole gal of popcorn
... I guess looks are deceiving.....................
I am in one of those moods, just too curious to let it go ....
so I had to check it out myself ...
my microwave popped this brand of popcorn ....
 |
| investigation begins |
with two big bowls and a 1 quart measuring cup I commenced by investigation
 |
| 1 Quart in the "other" bowl, and 1 Quart in the measuring cup ... |
 |
| 3rd Quart in the measuring cup |
 |
| approx 1 Tbsp unpopped popcorn left |
The results:
yielded 3 quarts of popped popcorn,
leaving about 1 tbsp unpopped
so if I eat all of the popped corn
and none of the unpopped corn
I consume 180 calories of yummy goodness
and now I know
:-)
