I was recently asked if I’d like to try Orville Redenbacher’s SmartPop! Popcorn. It contains only 100 calories in a 6 cup serving so of course I wanted to try it since I’m trying to watch calories. I was actually a little disappointed in the flavor of the popcorn. I like very buttery popcorn. Since this is a lighter popcorn, there obviously isn’t a lot of butter on it. The kids, however, love the popcorn. The nice thing about the new SmartPop is that it pops in it’s own bowl! You don’t have to dirty any bowls and since it’s shaped like a bowl you don’t have to stick your hands into a small opening in a bag, getting your whole arm full of butter. Since I couldn’t eat the whole bowl by myself, I could take half out and melt an extra tablespoon of butter over the popcorn to make it more the way I like it. That would make a 150 calorie snack, that’s still a great snack!
Orville Redenbacher’s® SmartPop! Gourmet® microwave popcorn has just 100 calories per 6 cups and is 94% fat free, so you can snack without giving up the delicious, fresh-popped taste and aroma you love
Now all they need to do is put their 100 calorie Kettle Corn into the bowls and I’ll be a happy camper! If you’d like to try out the new Orville Redenbacher’s SmartPop! you can get a $1 off coupon on their Facebook page. I’m also giving away 10 boxes of the popcorn; one box per winner for 10 winners!

I love popcorn as a nighttime snack!
I’d eat it late afternoon or in the evening after dinner.
Thank you!
Oddly I eat my popcorn as a late morning snack
While watching a movie at night with hubby!
this sounds great. my boys LOVE popcorn and I love the bowl idea
And we eat popcorn at all times but the best is with a movie at night
The wife and I generally eat popcorn as we are watching movies I do not want to see but she makes me watch.
We eat it when we are watching TV and for a quick snack
At night watching a good movie!
How perfect for lunch.
We cannot miss popcorns during movie time in our house. I think that is what my kids look forward to every time we are watching a movie. I will try the orville redenbachers smartpop. They sound great.
