Myths about popcorn - there is a need for clarification
Popcorn from the USA has long been a popular snack in Germany. It is often eaten in front of the TV or at the movies, which has given rise to the myth that popcorn is junk food. And this is just one of the many false claims about the yellow grain that are doing the rounds. This is now finally being cleared up.
Some people already suspect it, but popcorn offers more benefits than are attributed to it. Contrary to what many people think, it is low in fat and calories. Popcorn has only 30 calories per handful. The junk food myth also remains one, as it is a whole grain cereal and therefore a good choice for carbohydrates and fiber. In addition, popcorn from the USA contains no additives, no preservatives and is sugar-free. It is the perfect snack for everyone, as the yellow grain is free from wheat, rye and barley gluten, making it gluten-free and suitable for people with coeliac disease, gluten sensitivity and wheat allergies. Popcorn from the USA is a purely natural product that is 100% GMO-free.
As if all these benefits weren't enough, popcorn is also versatile thanks to its mild taste. Why choose between salty and sweet when you can have it all? If you've now worked up an appetite for the tasty snack, you can discover many more ideas for preparing the American grain and be inspired by a great selection of recipes: www.popcorn.org.
