Popcorn has been a perfect snack for most families while watching TV. It is available in many flavors including caramel, salty natural, tomato, cheese, dill pickles, salt and vinegar, cheese, white cheddar, holiday corn, and white popcorn.
Many people consider popcorn a diet food because it is sugar-free, light, fluffy, and easy to digest. Popcorn contains healthy carbohydrates, which makes it a good source of energy. Popcorn is a whole food and a healthy source of fiber. Popcorn is a great option that works to curb hunger between meals. People can feast on popcorn instead of starving themselves and staying hungry until the next meal.
Popcorn is available in two varieties, buttered and unbuttered. Large buttered popcorn typically contains 1,500 calories per cup. However, for diet-conscious individuals, there is unbuttered popcorn available that contains only about 50 calories per cup.
Unbuttered popcorn is a good staple for a low-calorie diet. Popcorn without butter can get boring and tasteless after a while. There are many things that people can do to make popcorn without butter a tastier snack. A dash of cinnamon, brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic, and salt from onions, peanuts, and raisins can add flavor. These are options that make unbuttered popcorn a little sweeter or saltier to suit the palate.
People can make popcorn at home or buy ready-made popcorn at local stores. There are supermarkets that sell sugar free and reduced calorie caramelized corn, salted instant popcorn without butter and many other varieties. Corn kernels are also available and can be popped at home. People can also choose from many different colors and types of popcorn and popcorn oils at grocery stores. However, all varieties of colored popcorn display a white hue, but each color has its own appearance, texture, and most importantly, flavor.
