By popular demand, I scanned the box and created pictures for all to see. I quickly posted them on my website (very much a work in progress).

I bought a box of "Screaming Yellow Zonkers" tonight at Walgreens pharmacy - a "Crispy light butter-glazed popcorn snack!" In the bottom right corner of both the front and back (both sides identical) it has: "NET WT. 4.25 OZ. (120g) (ONE EIGHT THOUSAND THREE HUNDRED THIRTY THIRD OF A METRIC TON)" It was made in Lincoln, NE by Lincoln Snacks Company, Chicago. I love their sense of humor! David Shatto Los Angeles
