What to Look for on a Packet of Popcorn

Packaged snacks are easier to choose when you know what to check on the label. With popcorn, a few simple things are worth a look.

First, read the ingredients. Short, clear lists are easier to understand. Second, look for statements about preservatives and artificial colours, and make sure they are printed on the pack.

Third, check the quantity. Some brands add extra in the pack, which matters when you are sharing.

Pops Recipe packs state 0% preservatives, no artificial colours added and 20% extra right on the front, so what you read is what you get.
