Popcorn The healthy vegan snack

I recently dusted off my unused Christmas present and decided to start making my own popcorn as I often buy it in supermarkets so this will save me money. Popcorn is a very healthy snack, it is low in calories and if you make your own you can either have it plain or add a small amount of flavouring to keep it healthy. 

This popcorn maker is so easy to use, it only requires a small amount of popcorn kernels to make a large bowl of popcorn. It means the bag of popcorn kernels which only cost 0.99p will last for a while, making it more cost effective than buying ready made bags of popcorn which can be expensive. 

To flavour the popcorn you can either keep it plain and add spices such as cinnamon or ginger or melt some butter and add sugar and mix it together. The less you add to the popcorn the healthier it will be. A great idea is adding seasoning without butter and mixing it together as it will still flavour the popcorn or eat it plain. This is definitely my new healthy snack of choice. 

Proper Corn Smooth Peanut and Almond

This is one for nut lovers a peanut and almond flavoured popcorn. It is delicious and a perfect combination. Popcorn is one of my favourite snacks as it is low in calories so a better options than crisps or nuts. I love eating peanuts but the snack versions with lots of added salt are not the best for you because of the high salt content. This is a perfect alternative as you get the nice nutty flavour without the high calorie and salt content. This was another one of my travelling snacks, I don't eat this much at home but these Proper Corn snack bags are great for taking to the cinema for a vegan alternative to the buttery kind sold at the pictures.  

Sandringham Snacks

It is nice to see vegan snacks in more locations. This popcorn by Proper Corn is one of my favourite popcorn brands it is really tasty, comes in lots of different flavours and is of course vegan. I was pleased to find this for sale at Sandringham in Norfolk. It can often be a challenge to eat out at none vegan places, especially in the countryside so having more vegan snacks available is always great. More places need to have vegan options available as they are missing out on business as if there is no vegan option I will simply eat nothing and have just a drink, having at least one option means people will spend more money. It would be nice to see vegan options on the food menu but most countryside places are very far behind the times when it comes to vegan meals so for now having a few simple snacks will have to do. 

Tyrells Poshcorn

Popcorn is an amazing snack, not only is it low in calories it is delicious and vegan. 

Tyrrells Poshcorn is a great brand. The sweet and salty popcorn is a tasty snack.  It is light and airy, full of flavour and perfect for sharing. 

The popcorn only has five ingredients as well which is perfect. I prefer snacks that are not full of additives and this is all natural ingredients. 

Available at supermarkets this is an easy snack to find and most importantly it's labelled vegan. If you are looking for a low calorie snack this is one to try.
