5 cups of air popcorn is 100 calories. I've never seen the calorie count for unpopped popcorn though.

3 Tbalespoons of unpopped is 120 calories.

But I believe 3 tablespoons unpopped makes 7 cups, so that's about right!

yes

One tablespoon of dry popcorn kernels will give you about 4 cups of popped corn. There are about 31 calories in a cup of popped popcorn if air popped. That would mean that there are about 155 calories in one cup of unseasoned popped corn.

If you're math is correct then air popped should be the same (no oil added)
