    Yeah I had that happen with canned beans. I realized too that the nutrition value for the WEIGHT of the beans PROBABLY includes that icky sludge that most people rinse off - so from now on I'm going to weigh my beans out first, then rinse them. That will be sad, too. Because I have been rinsing first, THEN weighing...and there is NO WAY there are 3.5 servings in the can once you rinse them. So unrinsed MUST be the way they are calculating it.

    "Bean sludge" is the best thing to come out of this thread. Excellent.

It isn't you or the topic. . . . .bean sludge. . . .can we at least give it a nickname for our diaries.....how many calories are in the sludge and what are the MACROS? Anyone. . . . .Bueller. . . .where is Cameron Frey?

    My scale education continues...this morning I measured rolled oats, and oat flour, and both ended up being WAY MORE volume in a serving than what would fit in the measuring cup. Interesting...
