About Popcorn kernels
Popcorn kernels are small, nutrient-dense seeds from maize (corn), native to the Americas. Known for their remarkable ability to expand and "pop" when heated, they have been enjoyed for centuries as both a snack and a food staple. Nutritionally, unpopped kernels are low in calories, fat, and sodium while rich in fiber, making them a wholesome base for a healthy snack. Popcorn is naturally gluten-free and contains antioxidants like polyphenols, which offer potential health benefits such as supporting heart health. While air-popped popcorn is a healthy option, its nutritional profile can shift dramatically when prepared with butter, oils, or heavy seasoning, increasing calorie and fat content. Popcorn's versatility makes it popular across cuisines and cultures, appearing in sweet, salty, or spicy forms. For optimal health benefits, opt for plain or lightly-seasoned popcorn and enjoy its satisfying crunch guilt-free.
