I have no idea why we are even pretending servings have anything to do with what you're supposed to eat. "Popcorn Perfect Butter Blast" has "0 fat, 0 calories" while being literally just oil i.e. pure fat because they divided 150g of it into 450 servings as if the average person i s individually buttering each piece of popcorn. Tictacs are pure sugar and round down to 0 calories and 0 sugar. I've seen cookies with 1/2 a cookie for the serving size. Legally they are supposed to reflect "typical consumption patterns" but it's more like "the smallest portion the FDA will let us get away with".
