We took the ‘Healthier Snack Challenge with Orville Redenbacher SmartPop + 10 Box Giveaway

May 28, 2012 By 73 Comments

We are a popcorn loving family!  We have been known to have it for meals.  But we don’t tell people that because they think we are weird!  One of the things I don’t like about popcorn is the extra calories brought on by heavy butter flavoring.  We love it – of course – but it is not good for me or my family.  Especially with the volume we eat.  And there are popcorn’s available that are just as good if not better that are a lot better for us!

So we took the ‘Healthy Snack Challenge’ and swapped our full of fat popcorn for Orville Redenbacher’s SmartPop Popcorn in the new, handy Pop Up Bowls! And we LOVE the Butter Flavored! 94% Fat Free and made with 100% Whole Grains, this is definitely a better alternative for me and my kids come movie night, afternoon snack or Saturday morning “treat”.

Now, I have to tell you, I was worried about the Pop Up Bowls that Orville Redenbacher now offers.  I thought, “There is no way this is going to stand up to my rambunctious kids!”  But they are a LOT easier than dragging out and washing three separate bowls and my kids do share from the same Pop Up Bowl!  And they have yet to crush one or spill from the bowl!  LOVE that!

Just place the bow in the microwave, watch as the big, flavorful, fluffy popcorn pops, hold the side and tear off the top!  Wala – an instant bowl that cooks, holds and tosses. Easy, right?

They are great and we love them!

So, instead of falling for the not so good for you higher calorie popcorn, grab the Butter flavored Orville Redenbacher’s SmartPop in the Pop Up Bowl’s! And then come back and tell me how much you LOVE the flavor and convenience!  And LIKE Orville Redenbacher on Facebook for great product news and even a $1.00 coupon with the Pop Cam game!

And, because everyone should try this, ten (10) of my readers will WIN a Box of this awesome pops corn to take the ‘Healthy Snacking Challenge’ of their own!  Just click [continue reading] for easy, Rafflecopter entry:

I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour by Mom Central Consulting on behalf of Orville Redenbacher’s. I received an Orville Redenbacher’s SmartPop! product as well as a promotional item as a thanks for my participation.

    When I was a kid, my Granny grew popcorn.  I can remember shelling the kernels off the cob she would pop on top of the stove – as I did when I got older.  Now it’s crazy convenient with the microwave popcorn ready for a snack anytime with no clean up mess!  :)   Always good stuff!!

    My whole family loves popcorn but our lil’ princess loves it the most i think it great she rather have a small bowl of popcorn than other less healthy snack…I love that it 94% and made from whole grain

  • Karren McIntire

    Popcorn is a quick snack in a pinch, fun to eat when watching a movie, etc.  It’s always a much healthier option than cookies and ice cream for the kids.  However, the butter is always a concern when it comes to our health.  This is a great option for us!  I love the Orville Redenbacher pop-up bowls!  My kids love the, too!  

  • Michelle

    Popcorn is great because you pop it in the microwave and it ‘s done in less thasn two minutes. Great snack without all of the calories
