Detailed explanation-1: -To see how many servings a container has, look at the top of the label. “Servings per container” is listed right above “Serving size.” In the example below, a frozen lasagna serving size is 1 cup. But the container has four servings. If you want to eat 2 cups-or half the package-you’d be eating two servings.
Detailed explanation-2: -Servings Per Container shows the total number of servings in the entire food package or container. It is common for one package of food to contain more than one serving. The information listed on the Nutrition Facts Label is based on one serving.
Detailed explanation-3: -Serving size is a standardized amount of food. It may be used to quantify recommended amounts, as is the case with the MyPlate food groups, or represent quantities that people typically consume on a Nutrition Facts label. Portion size is the amount of a food you choose to eat-which may be more or less than a serving.
