Hi Julie,

Yes, I am easily amused at times.

1) 16 tablespoons per cup. That would be 4 cups of bacon. That is
a lot of bacon!

2) Have you ever laughed at the servings per container on various
packages? One can of soup serves one person, but the label says
four. I have seen some pretty ridiculous servings per container
before, but SIXTY FIVE? That takes the cake!

3) Remember how much you paid to read this.
