Note To Self - 19th January Is National Popcorn Day!

Here’s the thing Christmas is long gone, you’ve made all manner of #healthy promises to yourself and yet your #snacking urges refuse to be silenced.? You may not know it but #popcorn might well be the answer!

We see self-imposed ‘snacking restraints’ as a guideline more than red line

AFTER ALL

-??Popcorn is a #wholegrain low calorie treat packed with beneficial fibre. ??? ???? ???popcorn actually packs more fibre per serving than whole wheat bread!

-?Popcorn is #glutenfree so a sound choice for those with dietary restrictions.

-?Popcorn is high in #satiety by which we mean low energy density yet leaves you feeling full

- Popcorn is packed with tryptophan, an amino acid that supports good sleep

- Aversatile, a pairing hero that combines seamlessly with both sweet & savoury flavours

- Any snack born 5,000 years ago that’s still strutting its stuff today has to have legs!

- #Crisps can’t jump 3ft in the air when popped FACT!

- Nothing beats the satisfying crunch of popcorn.? ?? In 1949 USA popcorn was momentarily banned for its noisy demeanour.

You may have realised that this isn’t the most impartial popcorn piece you’ve ever read and as our cover is now well and truly blown we’d like to recommend popcorn in 2 amazing guises.

Gnaw: Mixed with peanut butter and popped into a chocolate bar (soooooo good!)

Popcorn Kitchen: Home-popped, Belgian chocolate PLUS a generous sprinkling of milk chocolate love hearts.?

So endeth the #popcorn sermon
