The submission itself is three days old and the comment you replied to is from the same time. It looks like the submission came back through the second chance pool:

https://news.ycombinator.com/pool

If you hover over the timestamps ("1 hour ago") you'll see the actual submission date and time.

thom•6mo ago
Yes, but if less is more imagine how much more more would be.
camel-cdr•6mo ago
Cool idea.

For the sake of being pedantic:

> The whole bowl has fewer calories than two slices of garlic bread

Really? Idk what the sizes are, but I looked up the weight of one of those micro wave popcorn packages, which usually fill the bowl we have at home. That seemed to be 100g, which is about ~350 kcal not including oil/butter. I'm getting about ~275 for 100g of bread, which is more than two slices. That's about 6 inches of baguette.

ash_091•6mo ago
Maybe your bowl is bigger than OPs?

Those microwavable bags generally contain multiple servings.

kenshi•6mo ago
I should have included the following information in the blog post (will update it later!):

I usually have:

- 45g of air popped popcorn (64 calories).

- 5 to 10g of butter (37 - 74 calories).

- couple of garlic cloves (10 cals).

senkora•6mo ago
> You don't actually want 300 calories of refined flour.

Personally I always want this.

nosioptar•6mo ago
The only thing I want more than 300 calories of flour is 600 calories of flour.
unsnap_biceps•6mo ago
We make popcorn with https://www.kerrygoldusa.com/products/garlic-herb-butter/ and it's quite delicious, however, it doesn't quite hit the same as real garlic bread. The mouthfeel of the crispy toast is different than popcorn.

this is amazing, dieting is easy

I was shocked that my continuous glucose monitor showed a huge spike for popcorn without butter. Last time I had it.
xnx•6mo ago
Carbs like popcorn that dissolve in your mouth are very close to being cotton candy.
gumboshoes•6mo ago
This is also what I discovered. That a lot of what I like about beer and soft drinks is the carbonation, so having carbonated (calorie-free) water has similar satisfaction.
yial•6mo ago
I’ve found this to work for me incredibly well. Even just “club soda” fulfills 90% of the “cravings” I might have for a beer or soft drink. The other 10% I am probably actually hungry and just not realizing it.
