Edamame Calories & Portion
I'm confused. I bought 2 packs of edamame yesterday, one with the pods and one without the pods. For both of them, one 1/2 cup serving = 120 calories. Now, I would think a person would eat more edamame in 1/2 cup portion when they are not in a pod compared to those in the pods. So why would the calories be the same? So for…
