When choosing microwave popcorn, I am always torn between the buttery movie taste and the healthy varieties. For my own taste, there was no healthy option that wasn’t bland and boring. I recently got to try the all new microwave popcorn made from Pop Weaver – and now I don’t have to sacrifice taste for a smart and healthy choice!
Other brands use Palm Oil, which is so high in saturated fat. As well. Palm Oil also contributes to deforestation in tropical areas, and importing it uses a lot of fuel. Pop Weaver just introduced the first-ever microwave popcorn made with Canola oil, a renewable crop that is grown in the U.S. Canola oil helps lower bad cholesterol and protect against coronary heart disease, heart attacks and strokes. It is lower in calories, total fat, saturated fat and sodium, while also providing Omega-3, Omega-6 and Omega-9 fatty acids. So, it’s a healthier choice, supports local economy and is more earth-friendly than Palm Oil.
Pop Weaver microwave line comes in three flavors {Light Butter, Butter and Extra Butter}, and costs just 21 cents per full bag popped. I could really tell a difference the first time I tried Pop Weaver Microwave popcorn, it has a great buttery taste that is exactly like fresh movie-style popcorn. Yet, with such a great nutritional value, it’s a great snack for the kids {and so easy on the guilt of snacking!}
Disclosure: I was provided with product to facilitate this review post, opinions are my own.

As with many things… I’m a simple woman when it comes to popcorn, just pop it and hand me the bag. Don’t cover it in all cheese, butter flavor, etc. Not to say I don’t enjoy a good kettle corn on occasion.

Always in a bowl ( I can’t eat it out of the bag), freshly popped, with lots of butter flavor, salted, and with m&m’s sprinkled on top.

I like my popcorn with plenty of seasoning. I figure it’s a choice between extra buttery or extra sodium and that sodium is the lesser of the two evils. I love spicy food, so I have this cayenne-based seasoning that’s absolutely delicious! In a big bowl with a good movie and a snuggly companion is the best!

I like my popcorn just lightly buttered and like to eat it out of a bowl or large container. Once in a while I will add M& Ms and eat the two together. Thanks.

I love extra butter flavored popcorn. I like eating it out of a bowl because I don’t end up with the flavor stuff on the back of my hand. That’s weird I have no problem putting it in my body but I object ot having it on my body. stop thinking, just eat.
