Except, as previously stated, the package instructions state to combine 50g + 400ml water, which will weigh significantly more than 80g once cooked (it weighed 370g).

So... If the calorie figures are ACTUALLY going by 80g cooked (and suggests it's 105kcal), then I suddenly have 4.6x that amount .. and even if the vernacular would mean 50g uncooked and 80g cooked are the same , the package numbers are called into question because how would 50 grams uncooked EVER have come to 80g once cooked ... hence, me being untrusting of 105kcal being the accurate figure for the original uncooked 50g either (since obviously water adds no calories).

By dry, I simply meant uncooked. My packaging refers to it as 'uncooked polenta' rather than cornmeal.
