Pop Corn (1 serving(s))

Choose a smaller portion of plain, air-popped popcorn and avoid caramel, candy-coated, or heavily sweetened versions.

Eat popcorn alongside protein or healthy fat, such as a small handful of almonds, walnuts, cheese, or plain Greek yogurt.

Have popcorn after a balanced meal containing non-starchy vegetables and protein rather than as a standalone snack on an empty stomach.

Use savory seasonings like herbs, chili powder, garlic powder, or nutritional yeast instead of sugar-based toppings.

Slow down while eating and pre-portion your serving instead of eating directly from a large bag or bowl.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after eating popcorn if this is safe and appropriate for you.
