Ronzoni pasta confusion

On the nutrition info box of Ronzoni whole grain pasta (penne rigate), it says that 2 oz. of uncooked pasta is 1 serving, that there are 7 servings in a box. However, on the cooking directions on the back of the box, it says that one serving is 1/4 of the box, and that a whole box is 4 servings. Which do you suppose is correct? I'm pretty sure I didn't record the correct number last night because I was going by the cooking directions for a serving. It's so confusing!

I guess I"ll go with the higher number from the nutrition info and assume the cooking directions are wrong.

    its 2 oz uncooked, which is about 3/4 cup cooked. The recipe probably just "feeds 4" and assumes each person will consume more than 1 serving...

    the CALORIES go by 2 oz dry.
