Popcorn
It’s low in sodium, calories, and fat, but people continue to debate, is popcorn healthy? The answer is that there’s a right and wrong way to eat it. Popcorn is a whole grain, and it’s substantial, so you feel like you’re eating more. Buy popcorn kernels and pop it yourself on the stove. You can control how much butter goes in it, and you can play around with your favorite seasonings. Parmesan cheese, Chili powder, and cinnamon sugar all make excellent toppings.
You may not have time to make your popcorn at home all the time, so if you’re looking to buy some at the grocery store, it’s essential to check the ingredients before purchasing. Look for varieties that have only recognizable ingredients to avoid artificial flavors and colors.
Also, check that the popcorn was popped in a non-hydrogenated oil and that it contains reasonable sodium levels.
