I am that person reading labels in the grocery store, figuring calories, servings etc. I feel like the CHAMP of labels!
Then I got FOOLED by a small container of milk! I wanted to get a little bottle of milk, so I could refill/reuse it all week at work for my morning cereal. (cuz yeah, I am cheap too!) I read the portion amount "1 cup" FABULOUS---just what I want.
Refill all week, thinking well one cup is MORE than enough for my cereal.....well, you guessed it! It was a two serving container, and I have been using 2 cups of milk every morning. And thinking it was one.
Stupid "single serving containers" that are really 2 servings! :mad:
Thanks for letting me vent, and you all have a great day!
