He is making dinner and just brought me the nutrition facts off the side of a box. LOL! He knows I'm going to ask so I can record it so he just brought it to me before I could. I've got him TRAINED.

lol nice!

My poor hubby- he told me once a bag of chips had 150 calories in it.

I looked over at him and said "it says 150 calories PER SERVING and you just ate three servings..."

He was like CRAP lol.

Haha that is the cutest. My bf last night at the grocery store held up one of those hefty pre-packaged caesar salads and said "look, only 170 calories."

yeahhh for how many servings?
...there were 3.5 servings in the one salad. yikes!

My husband put a piece of cheese on a grilled sandwich I was having and I threw a fit. He didn't realize there was 70 calories in 1 little slice and didn't think it was a big deal at all. 70 is a HUGE deal when it's just an extra on a sandwich and not necessarily needed. He's been great at only using what I say or at least telling me EVERYTHING he uses down to the teaspoon.

sometimes they just make you go "awww"
My fiance now tries to count how many servings of different types of foods he has in a day... "I should put some more vegetables because i only had 1 cup earlier" or "I already had 2 starches today so i should have ___ instead"

.... but he swears he will not go on a diet. lol

That bugs me to NO END!

I went to the store the other day to get something for lunch- and I walk over to the salads- and I'm like oh okay 200 calories- but then it's 2 servings in the salad. I'm like DUDE I wouldn't mind if these were packaged in SINGLE SERVINGS!

I say we start a revolution so companies package things in single servings lol.

My husband thinks a whole box of cookies is a serving or a whole bag of chips is a serving- and so on.

When I eat now he says "is that a snack?" lol.

I agree. No hubby here (not even a boyfriend) but I wish they would package things in single servings. My biggest beef is drink servings. You cannot find 6 ounce or 8 ounce servings *anywhere* anymore. Not even for a cup of coffee.

Fortunately, I am old enough to remember they used to do that, once upon a time.

See that's how I feel- I mean okay maybe you are trying to save packaging by making larger portions- but then I won't buy it anymore! lol.

I prefer to make my own salads anyway- much less calories with my lite dressings.
