Myth #4: Microwave popcorn is an acceptable snack in terms of nutrition

Ever met a person who doesn’t like popcorn? Yeah, me neither. After all, who doesn’t love popcorn? It’s the best and, of course, most traditional snack choice when you are settling down to watch your favorite movie or TV show. So far, so good, but the problem comes when you opt for microwave popcorn, which, shockingly, it’s not the same thing as old-fashioned popcorn.

Microwave popcorn is super processed, loaded with tons of sodium and fat. The worst part is that it may even contain diacetyl, a chemical used in the bad lining. This chemical is basically the one that gives microwave popcorn its buttery flavor. Whenever you crave popcorn, go for plain and avoid microwave popcorn at all costs.
