How many of you have ever looked at the serving size on a bag of chips??
Ok, so a serving is say 20 chips? So, do you count the broken ones too or just "whole" chips? I mean if one is broken, it really shouldn't count right??
Do you only pick out the whole ones to make sure you are getting the full serving?? Then you are left with a poor bag of nothing but broken chips. :sad:

I know this is totally random but I thought it was funny.

    This is why people buy scales for their food.

    In all seriousness, this was meant to be funny.
    I was just being silly because I had chips with my lunch and had some broken ones on my plate.

    It seemed funny to me lol :bigsmile:

    I try to determine how many of the broken ones would make a whole. :)

    I put the crumbs together also, since I buy rice works chips a lot and they are never whole! :D

    Taping them together adds cellulose fiber. :drinker:

    I just weigh out my serving size of whatever I grab first, whole or broken. :)

    Yeah it was meant to be funny! I do the same thing and if several pieces add to to more than a whole....well then, who's the lucky one!? :laugh:

    I also divvy up the serving sizes into baggies and put them back in the box (or bag) so all I have to do is grab a bag & go with it. Although it never seems to equal the number of servings listed on the box.

    Before I got my food scale I counted 2 halves as 1 chip if they equaled a normal size chip. Now I weigh and feel no doubt whatsoever.
