I keep seeing people mention popcorn as bad (or too high carbs), but I figure it's not so bad unless you're on induction. According to carb counter in tools menu, it's 6.29 and 1.1 fibre. If you sub the fibre, then it's a little over 5 carbs/cup. I have it occasionally when I really feel like a salty, buttery snack. Just don't like pork rinds and sometimes want something crispy. Seems to me nuts (which are regarded a okay snacks) are about the same (not a cup of course). Peanuts are 5.4/oz, macadamia 4.5/oz. etc. In the Atkins carb counter, popcorn shows as 4.6/cup for trad. popped. Just curious as to why popcorn has the bad rap.
