Kernel Season’s Creates Buttery Popcorn without the Fat and Calories

More Americans than ever are concerned about their food habits, according to American Dietetic Associations’s 2008 public opinion survey. But finding a snack that tastes good and truly is low in calories and fat is not that easy. Supposedly healthy snacks such as trail mix can contain more than 600 calories and 40 grams of fat per cup. Grabbing a smoothie from the drive-through window can add an extra 600 – 800 calories to your day. And, a serving of granola with the wildly popular Greek yogurt packs in a whopping 20 grams of fat and 500 calories.

For people looking for a filling and guilt-free snack, popcorn is a safe bet. At 24 calories per cup, you can have five cups of air-popped popcorn for under 130 calories. But air-popped popcorn can seem dry and flavorless – and adding butter just adds fat and calories.

To keep your popcorn healthy and tasty, Kernel Season’s, the nation’s number one brand of popcorn seasoning, has introduced a new all natural butter-flavored, zero calorie popcorn spritzer. A few sprays of Kernel Season’s Popcorn Spritzer (suggested retail, $2.79) adds guilt-free flavor to any bowl of America’s favorite treat. The spritzer, made with a blend of canola, sunflower and corn oils, gives popcorn the taste of buttered movie theater popcorn, with zero fat per serving. Enjoy it with popcorn alone, or follow the spritzer with one of Kernel Season’s popcorn seasoning flavors from cheesy White Cheddar or Nacho Cheddar, sweet Kettle Corn and savory Ranch for an extra delicious, guilt-free kick of flavor.

Popcorn Spritzer pairs nicely with Kernel Season’s brand new Premium Raw Kernel Popping Corn (suggested retail, $2.39 per one pound pouch), the highest quality popcorn available. Nearly hull-less, this popcorn pops up fluffy, tender and crisp – and weighs in at just 120 calories for five cups.

Kernel Season’s Popcorn Spritzer and Raw Kernel Popping Popcorn are available at grocery stores across America.
