Orville Redenbacher’s Microwave Popcorn SmartPop! Value Size, Butter Flavor, 4g Fiber Per Serving, 2.69 oz., 12-Count

This popcorn is a great snack for movie nights or when I want something light but satisfying. The kernels pop well, leaving very few unpopped ones at the bottom, which I really appreciate. The texture is crunchy and not too hard, and it tastes fresh right out of the bag. I also like that it doesn’t feel overly greasy compared to some other brands. On the downside, it’s a bit saltier than I prefer, so I usually have a drink nearby. The bag size could also be a little larger. Overall, it’s a tasty, convenient snack that’s easy to enjoy and share!

I had forgotten that microwave popcorn was still around and figured I’d give this a try again. Not a lot of butter flavor, but not too salty, which I prefer. Decent value.

Best popcorn ever. Not oily and not overly salty. I'd say you get maybe 5 to 8 kernels that don't pop per bag so it pops well

I’ve always been a huge fan of popcorn as a light and satisfying snack, but I'm too lazy to pop kernels on the stove manually, and most microwave-able options from other brands are quite dense in calories, even the non-buttery versions. I discovered Orville's Smartpops when I was looking for a middle ground, and seeing its competitive price point (12 bags for $4.88), I decided to give it a try. The butter flavor is surprisingly rich for a popcorn that's supposed to be “light” and a tad bit healthier. You still get that classic buttery taste, sans the excess calories, (only 240 calories per bag!) or fat found in other microwave popcorn. However, as "no free lunch theorem" would propose, while it scores high for succeeding to become a delicious yet low-calorie snack, I did find the ingredient list to be quite concerning. I was surprised to see some extras such as palm oil, color added (annatto), and mixed tocopherols being written on the ingredients list; when I was expecting something much more compact. I understand that some preservatives are necessary to keep such products shelf-stable, but it feels like an option that's marketed as a healthy-alternative could be kept a little cleaner. Another thing worth noting is the sodium level. At around 340mg per serving, it’s not outrageously high compared to some other snack options, but if you’re eating it frequently at high volumes, that sodium can reeaally add up. So don't be tricked by the low calories, portion control is still needed! It’s worth keeping an eye on if you’re sensitive to salt or trying to manage your sodium intake. Overall, smartpop's a good choice for anyone looking for a tasty, low-calorie snack option. However, its not the healthiest option on the market, and be mindful of the bloated ingredient list and the sodium content if you plan to eat this frequently. I’ll definitely keep enjoying this in moderation, but I do wish it was a little more natural and lower in sodium.

This popcorn pops up light and fluffy, with very few un-popped kernels. It tastes like popcorn made the old-fashioned way, before the microwave bags.

Delicious! This is a wonderful and healthy alternative to buttery popcorn. I think it tastes amazing straight out of the bag and the calories per cup is hard to beat. Not only that, but it is about the same price as any other box of microwave popcorn.

This popcorn was okay but prob. won't buy it again. Price was good.

Delicious

It’s going to be less flavourful compared to normal popcorn, but if you are trying to watch your trans fat, it’s the best option out there.
