    Super confusing!

    If a serving is 110 calories for 3.5 cups and there are 3 servings per bag.. doesn't that mean the entire bag is 330 calories? Is there really 10.5 cups of popcorn in ONE bag?

    This is what I have settled. The brand I'm using now is super confusing. I can't even find an entry for it. I just have to mess with the servings until it comes up with what it says on the box.

    I'm having good, old fashioned, popped on the stove in a disreputable dutch oven that has been our popcorn popper for years. I'm having a lot but I've planned for it and plan to enjoy every crunchy delicious bite!

    ok so i feel totally stupid...i got the secret popcorn bags and it say 110 calories for 2tsp non pooped but 15 calories per cup popped and each bag has 5 cups poped. I am confused is it 110 calories for the bag or 75. the pop corn is called pop secret 94% fat free butter microwave popcorn.

    We opted to purchase an air popcorn maker for like $15. 5 cups popped has 100 calories and we add a few sprays of butter and some salt. It makes for a pretty large portion of popcorn as a snack.

    I used to have the bagged microwave popcorn and we logged it as 110 calories.

    Good luck with you endeavors!
