2 food points questions

  • I have 2 questions on food points:

    1. I know the popcorn blog is there, but I didn't see anything for Newmans Own Natural - for the whole large bag. Does anybody know how many points this is?

    2. I saw the blog about free veggie soup.... but was everyone talking about the Progresso brand vegetable soups that say "0 points" per serving. But there are 2 servings per can. So is the whole can also 0 points?

    Thank you
  • 1 Sorry I dont know anything about popcorn
    2 If you eat the whole can of "0" pt soup you should count it as 1 point.

    There is also a WW veggie soup that is 0 points you should be able to find the recipe on the web site.
  • Actually the Progresso soups that are 0 for 1 serving are normally 2 for the whole can. What you do is double the cal/fat/fiber then figure the points if you eat the whole can at one time.

    When others and I made that list for popcorn Newman's Own wasn't out.

    Take the calories/fat/fiber for 1 cup popped and then multiply them by the number of cups the bag makes and then figure the points. I would guess if it is a light popcorn to be around 4 and if it is a regular fat one it will be about 7.
  • Thank you both for your help. I never thought of doubling that soup. I'll bet that should apply to many "0 point" foods - that may have more than that for more servings.

    Thanks, again!
  • Yes it does the only foods it doesn't affect are zero point veggies which are always zero no matter the quantity.
