Many people will immediately turn up their nose if you say to them they need to work with a hot air popcorn popper to pop their popcorn. They've heard many tales about how that type of popcorn is lacks flavor and they want no part of it, not really willing to give it a try. But the thing is, these tales all come from individuals who are used to eating either that horrible microwave popcorn which is loaded with salt and a whole bunch of chemicals which are supposed to resemble butter, or movie popcorn which actually is soaked in salt and butter. So they actually are not aware of what the POPCORN tastes like, only the toppings. And thus they're assuming that since popcorn popped in a hot air popcorn popper is a lot more healthy for you, it must also taste awful compared to the "good" stuff they're accustomed to.

Indeed, it's a fact that if you pop your popcorn in a hot air popcorn popper, instead of using oil, it is healthier for you, however that is only part of the tale. You only use handful of oil whenever you pop popcorn and it's not enough to kill you anytime before long. And even though there are some oils which are superior to others, it's still oil and it does have a certain reputation for naughtiness.. And that bad reputation is WHY many people want their popcorn popped in oil - it adds to the excitement! If you are going to have a healthy snack like popcorn, the least that you can do is spice it up a bit and pop the stuff in oil!

If you were to compare simple popcorn - with no butter or salt or any other sort of flavoring - simply popcorn to popcorn, you would feel a difference in taste between popcorn popped in oil and popcorn popped in a hot air popcorn popper. The popcorn popped in the hot air popper seems like natural, unadulterated corn. It's light and airy and you taste corn whenever you eat it. When you pop popcorn in oil it turns out a bit smaller, somewhat denser and a bit chewier because it's soaked up some of the moisture from the oil. It'll even soak up the flavour from the oil which will make it taste very different than the air popped popcorn.

But this is my point. It doesn't matter how you pop it, popcorn is popcorn. The moment it comes out of the popper it's anyone's game! Add your butter and salt or your cinnamon and sugar. Go ahead and add your peanut butter or your chocolate. After which you don't even taste the popcorn anyway!

Therefore if you are going to drench you popcorn in calories and cholesterol before you have it anyway - and who doesn't! - then why not begin with a more healthy base and pop your popcorn in a hot air popcorn popper? You'll save a few calories anyway, plus some grams of cholesterol, and you will be beginning with a popcorn which just plain tastes better before you even add all that other stuff on it. If you are going to have chocolate coated caramel popcorn you owe it to yourself to lose all the calories and cholesterol you can. Just leave the bottle of oil on the counter. No one has to know but you!
