Hey hey, I like to make airpopped popcorn. I was just wondering if anyone knows whether the calorie counter counts the weight for it as popped or unpopped?

Thanks.

    Popped. I noticed that the calorie count seemed high for the air-popped. On my container, it says 150 calories for 7 cups popped. (I haven't entered it in the database.)

    I went to a few web sites and found...

    1 cup popped

    30 cal
    .4 fat
    6 carbs
    1.2 fiber
    1 protein

    they all seemed to say very close to the same
    hope this helps

    It should tell you on the bag of popcorn.
