Canned Beans

  • Hi Everyone!!

    Quick question if anyone can help me out. I decided to add a half cup of kidney beans to my stirfry just to add some extra fiber and protein. On the can it says 1/2 cup (130g), now does this include the liquid also? I weighed just the beans (130g) on my food scale and it filled 1 cup which is why I'm curious if the serving size on the can includes the liquid.
  • sounds like the label was just wrong.
  • Have you multiplied your servings in the can to see if the weight comes up to what's supposed to be in the can? I always thought in canned vegetables that it was net weight, (minus the liquid), but I could be wrong.
