HI, I'm new here and trying to figure out how many calories is in a big bag of 94% fat free popcorn. I put it in on the food list and it came up with 5 cups popped being 20 calories!!! That doesn't seem right. Is it? Are the nutrition values of most foods on here accurate.

    The microwave kind is typically 15-25 calories per popped cup, depending on the brand. The 100 calorie bags have 5 cups! The full size bags have 12 cups in each bag... so 180-300 calories per bag.

    Thank you, that definitely makes more sense. There are 5 cups in the 100 caloroe bags? Wow, doesn't seem like it would fit. Either way I guess it's still a lot for so few calories.
