"Popcorn may be the perfect snack food. It's the only snack that is 100 percent unprocessed whole grain."

"One serving of popcorn will provide more than 70 percent of the daily intake of whole grain. The average person only gets about half a serving of whole grains a day, and popcorn could fill that gap in a very pleasant way."

Joe Vinson, Ph.D., University of Scranton in Pennsylvania
