FAQs
Popcorn is a delicious snack, which is made from a variety of maize called zea mays everta.
The maize produces popcorn kernels which are then “popped,” which causes them to puff up and create something which is both soft and crunchy at the same time.
Popcorn as a snack is very versatile and comes in a wide variety of different flavours.
When popcorn is in its most basic form, it can be relatively nutritious. The corn itself is a wholegrain and it is rich in dietary fibre, as well as being low in calories. However, once toppings and flavourings are added, extra calories are also added.
That said, there are some healthy popcorn products available. One low calorie option is Propercorn Lightly Salted Popcorn which comes in at just 88 calories per serving. It is perfect for satisfying your savoury cravings guilt free.
Corn itself is gluten free and it continues to stay that way once it has been popped. However, gluten may be introduced once additional toppings and flavourings are added.
Be sure to check the labels to ensure that any popcorn you choose is gluten free.
Joe & Sephs Simply Salted Popcorn is completely free from gluten, dairy and refined sugar.
Popcorn is made using corn kernels. Each kernel contains a small droplet of water. When heat is applied to it, the droplet converts this to steam and the pressure begins to build. When the pressure is too much for the hull, the kernel explodes.
The starch which was previously inside the kernel then turns into white, fluffy popcorn.
To make popcorn at home, you will need to apply heat to un-popped kernels using a popcorn maker, a microwave or a pan.
Although popcorn kernels themselves are suitable for vegans, as they come from a variety of maize known as zea mays everta and so are plant-based, sometimes flavourings and toppings, such as butter are added, which of course are not suitable for vegans.
But do not worry, just because you are following a plant-based diet does not mean that you need to miss out on top tier snacking.
Holland & Barrett has a range of vegan popcorn available, including Propercorn Lightly Salted Popcorn and Nom Simply Salted Popcorn.
