Popcorn

I am pretty good at reading labels. Looking at Act II Butter Popcorn Label.

Serving size is 2 Tbsp unpopped (makes about 4.5 cups popped). There are 2.5 servings a bag. Unpopped calories per serving are 130 and popped is 25. SO.....There are 9 cups and bag, and I can eat 4.5 cups for 25 calories? That seems like A LOT of popcorn.
Oh wait
25 calories for one cup popped
so 100 and some odd for 4.5 cups, so is 1 cup a serving size then?
This label is confusing.

Any ideas? LOL I feel so dumb, but the way it is written confuses me.

Thanks!

    I hate math so I stick to the 100 calorie bags. :)

    Oh me too. In fact, I buy a lot of things single serving size because it's so much easier.
