I get these snack cravings in the evening and popcorn feels lighter than chips. But not sure if its actually a good option now that im pregnant. Anyone else snacking on it?
It was my go to evening snack honestly, quick to make and light. I just kept the air popped or lightly homemade kind, skipped the heavy butter packets. Easy when ur tired and want something to munch.
Plain home popped popcorn is actually a nice snack, its whole grain and has fiber. The problem is the buttery cheesy movie type ones loaded with salt n flavours. Make it at home with little salt and ur good.
Popcorn is okay in moderation, its a whole grain. But watch the portion and avoid the sugary caramel ones, those spiked me. I had a small bowl plain and it was fine, but check if u have sugar issues.
Popcorn was my safe snack haha, crunchy and not junk junk. I just avoided drowning it in butter like normal me. Air popped with a little salt totally satisfied my craving.
