Ever measure Uncle Ben's brown rice bags?

I was having brown rice with my dinner tonight, so I boiled up a bag of Uncle Ben's. Each bag is supposed to have two 1 cup portions. When I drained it and cut open the bag, it certainly didn't look like 2 cups, so I measured. It wasn't even 1 1/2 cups.
WTF?
Anyone else notice this? Or was there just a mix up on the production line?

Next time measure it before cooking, if it's 2 cups then they technically aren't lying, it is two cups... Companies will do this to cut costs and make you pay more. I suggest buying the plain full box of generic brown rice and measuring it out yourself. Maybe you got a bad bag though? I couldn't say. I don't buy Uncle Ben's rice.0
