    Serving Size Pre - Post Cooked

    I just noticed, serviing size on my whole wheat pasta is 2oz....so I cooked 8oz for 4 meals....post cooking that came to 20oz....does that mean I get 2oz post or pre cook? The package doesn't specify, but 2oz pre cooked is REALLY small portion.

    That must be the pre cooked serving. Pasta absorbs the boiling water increasing it's size and weight in the process.
