Nutrition Amounts Per Day

How many peanuts are in an ounce?
On all of the peanut packages i buy, they state the nutrition value by the ounce, not per peanut or amount (example nutrition per 10 peanuts). I need to know for my medical diet that requires me to count all of my calorie intake for the day.
Peanuts vary in size and weight, that is why the nutrition information is listed in ounces.
As you are on a “medical diet” you should get an inexpensive kitchen scale to measure things out. Measuring food by weight, rather than volume is much more accurate.
You can get a kitchen scale and most department stores for under $10-15 dollars.
BTW, I looked at the USDA nutrition charts, and they estimate that one dry-roasted peanut with salt weighs about 1 gram. There are 28.35 grams in one ounce – so that would be about 28 peanuts in one ounce. But you don’t know if the peanuts they used to come to that determination are the same size as the peanuts you have….so you are still best to get a scale.
