Popcorn butter is a savory topping crafted from melted butter, often infused with salt or other flavor enhancers to maximize the taste experience of freshly popped popcorn. This indulgent addition originates from American cuisine, where buttery popcorn is a staple snack at movie theaters and casual gatherings. Although delicious, its nutritional profile depends on moderation. Butter contributes fats, including saturated fats, and calories, making overconsumption a less healthy choice. However, butter contains small amounts of vitamins A, D, and E, which offer minor nutritional benefits. Pairing it with air-popped popcorn—a whole grain naturally high in fiber and low in calories—can help balance the treat when enjoyed occasionally. For a healthier alternative, consider using smaller amounts of butter or substitute with low-fat spreads.
