How do you get seasonings to stick to popcorn without using grease?

Question

I used to put (vegan) smart balance on my popcorn to get the nutritional yeast to stick, but now I'm trying to cut fat from my diet.

Does anyone have an alternative method that doesn't involve animal ingredients?

Answer 1

If you have a Misto spray bottle, you can spray your popcorn LIGHTLY with water - it'll help seasonings stick.

Answer 2

Like a couple others I spray olive or canola oil on the popcorn which absorbs but gives you enough time to add seasonings.

Answer 3

add the seasonings while the popcorn is still hot...like as soon as its out of the machine....

Answer 4

Completely cutting fat from your diet won't help you get to your goal any faster.  Popcorn with smart balance and seasoning on it is still a way better choice than a load of greasy chips.

I would say just use the smart balance.

Answer 5

To make popcorn, your going to have to be using some sort of oil to get it to pop - unless your using a hot air popper.

Be careful or removing too much fat from your diet because there are serious side effects to doing so - and will cause great pain when you are attempting to use the restroom - if you catch my drift.......

Just use a the Smart Balance - just don't use so much that it is dripping or soaked with it.  Moderation is the key.

Answer 6

I spray a little non stick pan spray and add quickly. Works good.

Answer 7

spray it with pam
