I consider myself a healthy eater but with constantly being on the road (or rather on the go), I’ve become a grab-and-snack-aholic. Fortunately, chips and popcorn have come a long way since the Doritos and Smartfood days and thanks to Popcorn, Indiana consumers have a more healthier alternative to their junk food equivalents without sacrificing nutrition or flavor.

So when I received an invite to sample the new collection of flavors launching this year, how could I resist? 5 things learned from the experience (that you probably didn’t know either):

1. Popcorn, Indiana is a real city (in Indiana)

2. Popcorn, Indiana is not founded in it’s namesake but in New Jersey

3. Popcorn, Indiana’s classic, handcrafted popcorn and Kettlecorn use 100% natural ingredients and are gluten-free, contain zero trans fat, are made from non-GMO corn, and contain whole grains.

3. The Bacon Ranch Popcorn is actually vegetarian

4. This month they’ve launched the  first ready-to-eat Movie Theater popcorn that comes in a microwave safe bag (you literally just put the popcorn bag in the microwave).

5. Launching in October, Indiana, Popcorn is introducing 4 new dessert-worthy flavors: Dark Fudge Peppermint Kettlecorn, Chocolate Peanut Butter Kettlecorn, Almond Biscotti Caramel Popcorn, and Roasted Peanut Caramel.
