Popcorn, air-popped

Popcorn, air-popped is the simple snack made by heating popcorn kernels until they pop; it's popular worldwide as a light, crunchy snack and frequently served plain or lightly salted. Nutritionally it stands out as a whole-grain, low-fat snack that provides 14.5g of fiber per 100g, along with some plant protein and minerals like magnesium and manganese. Because it is high in fiber and relatively low in saturated fat, it helps with fullness and is a better everyday snack choice than many fried or heavily salted alternatives; it does not contribute much in the way of antioxidant polyphenols compared with whole fruits or some nuts and seeds.
