I end up eating way less than the low cal stuff because it's so satisfying.


Taking this on a tangent, but when I add melted butter to my popcorn, it just makes the popcorn soggy. I have tried adding less butter and all that happens is that more kernels have no butter on them, and the ones that do are still soggy. What am I doing wrong?


Add the popcorn to the butter, not the other way around.

Put your melted butter in an empty serving bowl, and swirl it around so the sides are coated in melted butter. Then add the popped popcorn, tossing it around as it goes in. Each kernel will pick up just the butter it soaks up from the side of the bowl. Pouring melted butter onto the top of the popcorn guarantees it'll saturate whatever kernel it hits first, leaving the others naked.

It does take an extra bowl this way, but it avoids the sogginess.

Meanwhile my fat ass is over here using I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Spray... which is actually really good with ranch powder.

Smartfood is better because the flavor is more stronger than skinny pop, I understand Skinny pop has less calories and gluten but I would pick skinny if it had more salt probably.

OMG that sounds amazing - I haven't hade real home popped stuff with butter in about 30 years


Guys, homemade popcorn is so easy and better than anything at the store. I started making it during the pandemic and haven’t gone back to buying.

I can only eat the skinny pop cheese because it’s vegan. And I’m so glad it’s out there! I might get some now.

I can’t eat the cheddar stuff (dairy) but Boom Chika Pop is the fave in this house. It’s not popcorn but the chili puffs are *So Good* too!

This family is all about their products.

I am lost in this thread. Why not just generic popcorn from the grocer in an air popper? Why branded popcorn?

Flavoring. Easier to open a bag and start eating than pour kernels into an air popper, wait for them to pop, melt butter or whatever, pour it in, then clean up.
