I knew my popcorn habit was derailing my progress, but I didn’t realize why. Each 1/5 second “serving” of this spray has two calories. I scoffed when I’d read that some of y’all use a water spritz to make the salt stick instead- this product is far superior and only two calories! This day though, my thinking hat was on when I glanced at the nutrition label- there are 568 servings of aerosol canola goodness per can, so 1136 calories. And this stuff is good (really good,) so I estimate I would use a can every 5-6 bowls of air popped corn, and I eat popcorn everyday. So essentially I’ve been adding ~160 calories to every 130 calorie snack daily without counting it! For months! Holy shit! It’s not the carbs after all.

I know there are probably zero-calorie sprays, but I think I’m going to try just leaving the popcorn plain from now on, as I believe the general delicious, mindless munchability of salty popcorn isn’t do me any favors either. But maybe I’ll try that weird water thing someday. Cheers!🍿
