Smart food is the only acceptable popcorn unless you are making it on the stovetop with tons of butter and salt.

Pirate Booty!

Smartfood forever!

i think that SKiNYYY POPS are number 1

Smartfood

We make our own, hot air popper , salt and a little butter yum! Since college our original air popper lasted over 25 years.

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?

I pop in stove in coconut or avocado oil, one even in bacon fat.

With bacon fat I didn't add butter, but with the pills, I poured the popcorn out of the pan into a bowl. Add butter to pan, which is still hot enough to melt butter. Maybe a tablespoon for two people. Then I drizzle it on top the popcorn and then pour all the popcorn back into the pan, add a dash of salt, put the lid on and give it a few shakes before pouring back into the bowl.

That is amazing and low calorie! I love it but can't eat it due to dairy allergy.

Pop on stove in coconut oil. Add salt. Still good.

Smart Pop! How is that even a question, if you are talking eating popcorn for fewer calories?
Or pop your own. Skinny pop kills with calories compared to smart pop.

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

It's amazing.
Super easy on the stovetop or in microwave (Google Mark bittman microwave popcorn--no oil!). And cheaper and takes up way less storage space and plastic waste than prepopped bagged stuff. Plus it's exciting to hear the pop pop pop!

-not a lobbyist for the popcorn council, I swear

Smartfood all the way.

Smartfood is so much better. The thick layer of fake cheese that accumulates on the hand — skinny pop comes nowhere near it.

Smartfood cheddar for taste, Skinny Pop if I'm watching calories. It's still good, just more bland tasting.
