Vitamin A & E and high in fiber. I have eaten popcorn more than probably any other food over my entire lifespan. Cook it in a pan with some oil. Enjoy the hell out of it. It's a gift from the universe or God or whatever. BOINK!!!

Though if you're looking for a way to help ease hunger while losing weight, it could help.

I'd hear a rumor that it was HIGH on the scale because of the way it is blown inside out- like puffed rice products and such. Somehow being puffed makes it more a simple carb than a complex one?? Any thoughts?

Just as other veggies have more flavor fresh from the garden, so does popcorn. We grew a Japanese variety that doesn't get very tall. Yummmy.

In its unadorned state (air popped with no oil), it is sodium free, sugar free, high fiber, low calorie (a one-cup serving has 31 calories), gluten free and low on the glycemic scale. Munch away!

It's not exactly bad for you – until you add stuff to it. You're just not pulling much from it. It's like eating air… you still need nutrients to survive. But there is a small amount of protein, especially in what you might add to it. But the really bad stuff is added in, not inherent in the popcorn.
