Air-Popped Popcorn
Air poppers heat corn kernels without using oil, which makes them a healthy alternative to stovetop or microwave methods. You can cut out about 20 calories and 3 grams of fat by using an air popper to make your popcorn.c
Each corn kernel contains a small amount of water. When the heat from the air popper converts this water into steam, it makes the kernel explode and become a fluffy piece of popcorn.c
