Popcorn, Salted

Popcorn, Salted

EverydaySalted

Popcorn, salted is a whole-grain snack made from dried corn kernels that expand and pop when heated. The light, airy popped kernels are typically seasoned with salt, providing a satisfying crunch while maintaining lower calorie density compared to many processed snack foods. While naturally high in fiber and gluten-free, commercial salted varieties often contain significant sodium levels that may require consideration for sodium-restricted diets.
