Back To School Snacks: Jolly Time Popcorn Review

Tweet

I am a popcorn fanatic. It's truly one of my favorite snacks. Every time I want to lose weight, I turn to 94% fat free popcorn as one of my snacks to keep my hunger at bay.

To say I was excited to try Jolly Time popcorn would definitely be an understatement. I normally eat a different brand of popcorn. It's been a while since I have tried Jolly Time and I didn't know what to expect compared to my regular brand. I received three flavors to try, Healthy Pop Butter, Healthy Pop Kettle Corn and Blast O Butter. All flavors came in the perfect snack size mini bags. The first thing I noticed about all of the flavors compared to my regular brand was more popped kernels. This is definitely a plus for me and enough to get me to switch brands. 

I know I'm kind of boring. That explains why the Healthy Pop Butter flavor is my favorite of all three flavors. Being a lifetime Weight Watchers member, it is comforting to know that an entire bag of Healthy Pop is only three Weight Watchers points. 

For a sweet treat, the Healthy Pop Kettle Corn is also very good. I like just a hint of sweet that satisfied both a sweet tooth and a salt craving. I loved the kettle corn. What's even better is that one bag is only 100 calories. Since I'm watching my weight, it is comforting to know I can eat an entire bag without feeling guilty.

Of course my son had his own idea of what constitutes good popcorn. The more butter, the better for him. He loved the Blast O Butter. The first thing he said when he tried it was, "Mom, why don't you buy the buttery popcorn more often." While I admit, eating the Blast O Butter was a guilty pleasure, it's not something I would indulge in very often. However, it's the perfect back to school treat for my son and one that I will have on hand for him in the future. 

In fact, any of the Jolly Time Popcorn flavors make great after school snacks. The mini bags are a great serving size and insure your child will be more likely to finish compared to the bigger bags.

Jolly Time offers some great recipes. I can't wait to try the Coconut Monkey Mix and the Double Chocolate Popcorn Balls. The large variety of recipes offer great after school snack choices. 

I definitely recommend Jolly Time for the perfect back to school afternoon snack. In fact, I liked it so much, I will be switching brands from my regular popcorn.
