Guest guest Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 I'm pretty good at figuring out points, generally speaking, but I am confounded by mircowave popcorn. Can anyone tell me how many points are in the standard size bag of light popcorn? I think the calorie counts are pretty consistent across the different brands. I usually eat half a bag, but sometimes I do the whole one (and I count it as 5 points). Is that right? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
