The Healthy Snack! Plain popcorn is at the top of most nutritionists’
recommendation lists. Air-popped and eaten plain, popcorn is low in
calories and fat and high in fiber and beneficial antioxidants,
especially when compared to other common snack foods. Popcorn is a
whole-grain food that can be eaten as part of a healthy diet that
includes at least six servings of grains every day.
