A bag of Chips VS a Serving of Chips

Today, I went to the grocery store. I had a craving for Baked Lays Sour Cream and Chedder so I bought a bag. Once I brought it home, I was starting at it on my counter. I didn't really want to eat them right then because I knew it was going to be a pringles moment, Once you pop, you can't stop.

SO, I looked at the serving size, it said.. 9 servings per bag, 120 calories. I was thinking about it... 120 calories is not that bad... how much is a serving really???

I pulled out 9 ziplock bags. Maybe this will keep me from eating half a bag of baked lays. I open the bag and start dividing. I start small... a small handful in each bag. I don't even know if this will make 9 servings.. these bags look PITIFUL!

I fill all 9 bags... it looks like there are 5 -7 chips in a bag. SAD. After all of this... I know I don't want to just eat one bag.. It ruined my whole chip experience LOL.

This reminds me of an episode of Oprah! Oprah was talking about her weakness being Blue Tortila Chips. If Oprah opened a bag and seperated it into servings herself and then posted the calorie content next to them, I doubt she would want to eat them either.

SAD SAD NEWS IN THE CHIP WORLD TODAY...


Could you imagine if you did this with all your food? Little tupperware single serving sized? MORBID I KNOW YES... but it gets to your Psyche. Like a can of Fruit or even a bag of Carrots.

THIS IS TOO MUCH TO THINK ABOUT TONIGHT :)
