Smartfood White Cheddar Popcorn

It still comes in a black bag after all, the one I had before was just a "light" version! Wowow. Anyway, this is whatever. Never been my favorite - what's that cheese powder doing there? It's so messy and tastes a little sweet. But I can't deny that it's a snack I'm not allergic to. And at this point the packaging is almost nostalgic. So, OK. It's fine. A very "I am eating a processed food" experience, and to a brand I have no real loyalty to, which I guess is how other people feel when they encounter Dunkin, Haribo, and Pepperidge Farm (:o).

Smartfood Simply Sea Salt

Ah, now here's a safe sort of food. Smartfood is made by FritoLay/PepsiCo, and they're good about allergies (they have one Kettle Corn variety that may contain nuts, but they say so). But wait!! I just saw a Cheetos that has pea protein in it. So that's terrible and depressing. However, this has like 3 simple ingredients, which I think is kind of the point. So that's good. What's not good is that it makes me want a cheese or kettle popcorn instead of a plain popcorn, which is the most boring kind of popcorn!! It's still pleasant, nice texture and less depressing to have eaten than microwave popcorn, so I do like it. Tastes like popped corn with light salt vibes. And so it is.

Smartfood delight - White Cheddar popcorn

I must say, this is a nice snack to have around. I bought a big pack of single-serve bags so that I would have something to take to the office, and this served me well. They're light and just cheesy enough to be satisfying. I wish there weren't so many broken pieces at the bottom, but that might be my fault. I also like the other flavors and will probably buy more of this in the future! It may be my favorite cheese popcorn yet. Also, when I googled this I saw that it used to come in a black bag which I used to get in vending machines all the time! I think I like the new version better, even if it's exactly the same recipe. Haha. Good flavor though, not too artificial or overpowering.
