Corn, Popping (Popcorn) – A Vegan Pantry Ingredient from Vegan Venue
Corn, Popping (Popcorn) is one of the fun food ingredients that we keep in our vegan pantry, so we can make popcorn anytime we desire. See more about it below.
Corn, Popping (Popcorn)
About Popping Corn (Popcorn):
Popcorn is usually considered a snack food, but when air-popped, it is quite a healthful food, unlike oil-popped and candy coated popcorn, and potato chips. We usually air-pop our popcorn in our microwave oven in a special container we purchased specifically for this purpose, or in a hot air popping machine. While the so-called gourmet popcorn may produce slightly larger volumes of popped corn, we have found that the price difference is unjustified, and usually purchase store, or either organic or non-organic off-brand popping corn seed. Unfortunately, we have found some very poor quality organic popcorn, and, as a result, we usually purchase a store brand at a local supermarket for less money. See the nutritional chart below.
