Healthier Alternatives to Microwave Popcorn

No longer do popcorn-lovers have to suffer through the artificial flavors and greasy bags of microwave popcorn.

In this article, I'm here to make popcorn-lovers everywhere aware of the healthier, fresher, better-tasting options out there. From air-popped popcorn to store-bought kettle corn, let me share with you some of my favorite popcorn choices that don't involve microwaves.

Air-popped popcorn is a great way to prepare popcorn at home in just a few minutes. All you need is an air popper (or an empty brown paper bag and a microwave) and some kernels. The result is light, fluffy popcorn that's low in fat and full of flavor.

Kettle corn has taken the popcorn world by storm! Store-bought treats like these make it easy to enjoy popcorn any time of day. The mixture of sugar and popcorn-seasoning gives it just the sweet-and-salty taste you want without the mess of making your own.

If you love microwave popcorn, there's no need to give it up entirely. Just use it sparingly and enjoy some yummy popcorn alternatives for variety.
