Why does it say that the calories in the bag of un-popped pop corn is 130 and when it is popped it has 100.......
Where does the other 30 calories go?

    :huh: Weird... My only guess is that maybe they are excluding the un-popped kernels that are always in the bottom of the bag?

    I'm going to guess if you'd lick the greasy buttery salty love on the bottom before it's popped you'd get all those extra calories?! :tongue:

    I've noticed that. It is very weird. I always count the higher value to be safe. But other than that, yummy!! Love me some popcorn!
