Cathy: Serving size is 2 tablespoons unpopped, which is 120 calories, which makes 5 cups popped, but there are 2.5 servings per bag, which makes 12.5 cups popped at 25 calories per cup. Charlene: Wait. This serving size is 3 tablespoons unpopped, which makes 5.5 cups at 110 calories per 6 cups but 20 calories per 1 cup. Mr. Pinkley: This has a 2-tablespoon serving size but only makes 3.5 cups popped with 3 servings per bag at 10.5 cups popped and 45 calories per cup. Charlene: But 30 of those 45 calories are fat calories, and only 5 of these 20 and 10 of these 30 are fat calories. Cathy: If it's supposed to make 7.5 cups, but only 4.3 cups pop, how many calories do I subtract, and are they fat or non-fat? Woman: Look! Kettle corn! Charlene + Cathy + Mr. Pinkley: Aack! Now we have to start all over!!! Then: Now. Life screeches to a halt while we try to comprehend the microwave popcorn box.

So progress is brought to a halt by popcorn.

Or … they could just enjoy the popcorn (as SnowBunny said) and turn off their brains. But then, we wouldn’t have our daily [eye-roll], now, would we?
HI, MOM. Good Sunday Morning, “Cathy” Clan.

I don’t even read the label on the popcorn – just pop it and eat it. Way too complicated to figure out the calories per serving. Wait, should be easy. One bag of microwave popcorn = one serving. Can never stop part way though the bag anyway.
Great Sunday today. Rather cool (4C) but not snowing or raining. Was rather happy the little snow we got on Friday did not stay on the ground and it stopped after about an hour. Hope everyone else is enjoying their weekend – especially my Canadian friends here who get tomorrow off as well.
