My Biggest Complaint About Serving Sizes on Food Labels

Okay… I’m a snacker, no, not a slacker, a snacker. Most embarassingly (is that a word?), I LOVE to snack on croutons. Yes, croutons. They’re crunchy, a tiny bit salty, low in fat, saturated fat free, have protein (how, I don’t know), garlicky and a tiny bit cheesy! YUM! But, what the heck is a serving?!?! According to the label, “a serving” is 2 tablespoons. WHAT!?!? Okay, here goes… 2 tablespoons could be as few as 4 croutons or as many as… well, if i”m filling up the spoon, say…um, maybe 20 or 28 croutons. Get it together “food police”. Please… NARROW IT DOWN!

  1. Maybe you are supposed to smash them up until they are crumb-like and see how many make 2 tablespoons. :)

  2. LOL I thought I was the only person who ate croutons right out of the box!
