So yesterday I started…
to count points again. The question is do I really care about how many Weight Watchers points are in a taste of wine? Not really, but for the sake of giggles, let’s figure it out.
If a glass of wine has 2 points on average, and a serving is 5 oz (yes this is an actual glass of wine serving, not 4 oz, not 8 oz, but 5 oz), then that breaks down to 0.4 points per ounce, right? A taste can very from 1/2 oz to 1 oz on average, so you’re looking at 0.2 – 0.4 points per taste. Assuming the WW conservative 1 oz taste, then we’re looking at 5 tastes before you hit the 2 point mark (1 serving). However, if you’re considering the Wineries’ conservative 1/2 oz pour, then you get 10 tastes before you hit those 2 points.
I can live with that — for now
