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.
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.

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.
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:

Personally I always want this.

Those microwavable bags generally contain multiple servings.
I usually have:
- 45g of air popped popcorn (64 calories).
- 5 to 10g of butter (37 - 74 calories).
- couple of garlic cloves (10 cals).
