Serving size?!

Serving sizes annoy me! I just steamed some veggies that were prepackaged. The serving size was 1 cup, 128g with about 2 per package. Ok, so I make it and then I go to weigh it out and the WHOLE package is 128g. Um what? So now that it has been cooked does the serving size change to 64g or is it still 128g?

when you cook things it absorbs water. Always weigh as packaged.0

cooking changes the weight and nutrient value of everything...0
