He is trying to change some of my eating habits. And I'm okay with most of it except this one issue:

I love oil popped popcorn. He is trying to get me to switch to air popped popcorn because it's healthier. And he even gives me a website to prove it.

http://www.livestrong.com/article/157609-air-popped-popcorn-vs-oil-popped/

I use Mazola Vegetable Plus! oil to pop my popcorn and it's delicious! I've checked not only the website he provided but after reading everything it does seem that air popped corn is much healthier.

The article claims that air popped contains 0mg of sodium. Oil popped contains 97mg sodium per cup.
However, the oil I use has 0mg of sodium and is cholesterol free. So where is the sodium coming from?
Plus, the oil I use has "Vitamin E 15%"
The oil also contains 1000mg of Omega-3Ala per serving.
I'm sure I could even find another oil that has more benefits.

So wouldn't oil popped popcorn be healthier?

Status: offline 		This may better belong in the Health & Safety section than General BDSM, but, I'll take a stab at what you're contemplating...

Here's what you said:

Mazola Vegetable Plus!
  • 0mg of sodium and is cholesterol free
  • "Vitamin E 15%"
  • 1000mg of Omega-3Ala per serving.

    Air popped popcorn:
  • none of that

    Looking at the article, here's what it said:
  • several tablespoons of oil gives popcorn a "richer" taste
  • 1 cup of air-popped popcorn contains 31 calories, 1g of protein, 6g of carbohydrates and 1.2g of fiber.
  • 1 cup of oil-popped popcorn contains 55 calories, 1g of protein, 6g of carbohydrates and 1.1g of fiber (+3g of fat and 97mg of sodium)

    At that point, the article "implies" that to-be-air-popped popcorn is, essentially, different stuff, than to-be-oil-popped popcorn:
  • Air-popped popcorn is made from whole grain, which provides fiber and complex carbohydrates for energy and stamina.
  • Homemade oil-popped corn offers most of the same nutrients with higher fat and sodium

    I would agree with you that it's not obvious where the sodium comes from.
    My only assumption is that they "implied" that the starting point popcorn for to-be-oil-popped popcorn is different stuff than the to-be-air-popped popcorn.

    Seems to me, based on just that, if you can buy the to-be-air-popped popcorn, and you add the 3 grams of oil, you get the "benefits" of the 3 grams of oil without any sodium chloride.

    There's no spontaneous generation of sodium chloride so, if it's not there, it's not there.


    Disclaimer: I haven't eaten popcorn in years, nor have I ever studied the stuff...
