WW POINT value needed

[tiggerlover]

Can you help me with a POINT value for Jolly Time's Healthy Pop Pop Corn? I have the nutritional information, but it is a little confusing to figure out.

Here is a link to the nutritional label, just click on nurtitional information:

I am trying to figure out how many points for the bag. But when you have the 1 cup values, it lists no fat or fiber, but in the unpopped value column there is 2 g fat, 9 g fiber, so does that mean for one bag there are 250 calories, 2 g fat, 9 grams of fiber and 3 POINTS for the bag? Or am I computing this wrong. With most popcorns that I have bought in the past it breaks the values down for the popped bag and this just seems a bit confusing to me.

Thanks in advance.

Weight Watchers has Jolly Time Healthy Pop 94% Fat Free Butter Flavor Microwave, Popped 5 cups listed for 1 point. I love this stuff it really satisfies me for a night time munchie. I usually get kettle corn. Hope this helps.

That's one UGLY nutrition label! I hate when the "serving size" is a weird fraction of the whole bag, and when the serving size isn't what they've based the nutrition numbers on.

Here's how I would calculate it:

One serving = 5 cups
One bag = 2.5 servings, or 12.5 cups

I would take the per cup nutrition info and multiply times 12.5 to get the numbers for the whole bag.

According to the label, 1 cup popped is 20 calories, 0 g fat, 1 g fiber.

For the bag, that's 250 calories, 0 g fat, 12 g fiber (it's probably really 9, but the rounding because of the weird measurements make it look like 12... doesn't matter, since we'll only use 4 to figure points anyway.)

For the whole bag= 4 points. (250 c, 0 fat, 12 fiber)
For one 5 cup serving (a little less than half the bag) = 1 point (100 c, 0 fat, 5 fiber)
