Popcorners

I'm a huge fan of snacking, especially during ultimate tournaments when you have to play all day and don't have the opportunity to eat a meal between breakfast and dinner. I like to take new opportunities to try new snack foods when I can (and of course within reason because compulsive snacking isn't good). Recently I was on a United flight and had the opportunity to try PopCorners, one of those newer snacks that's trying to put a healthier alternative into the marketplace (how healthy these types of snacks actually are though, is another question). Airlines do seem to be somewhat heading in that direction with their snacks as well, and I was pleasantly surprised at how good the chips/things/whatever tasted. I went through a couple of bags of the sweet chili variety pretty quickly (to be fair I'm a little bit of a sucker for spicy snacks). They aren't oily at all and after eating two bags there was very little oil or residue on my fingers-all in all a fine snack. However the snacks are made by a smaller company and can be difficult to find in stores (though of course you can order it via Amazon and other online retailers, though there's no way I'm ordering 40 bags of this at once). Alternatively, you can also find these on JetBlue flights and snack away to your heart's content.
