the ugly truth about movie popcorn (enter to win movie tickets!)
Did you know that on average a Movie Combo that includes a medium popcorn and medium soda is 1600 calories and 60 grams of saturated fat? Let me put that in perspective for you. That’s as many calories as 3 Big Macs and 3 times more saturated fat!

Just to let you know I’ve tried the popcorn Karen is talking about and it’s good…it gets stale pretty quick after opening the bag so if your like me, and eat just a serving at a time, sealing it really well might be a good idea… and thanks Karen… what a great lesson in “harmless” snack foods…
Thanks Tami. It’s true, that when my husband gets into the bag, it doesn’t get resealed well! And then it’s just ruined. I use a large rubber band around it then put it in a ziplock to maintain freshness.
Thanks so much for sharing this video. Looks like I will be sneaking in popcorn next time I go to the movies!!
I really learned something, I usually get a small pocorn and eat about 1/3 and no drink, but I will bring my own snacks in most of the time from now on. Thank you for the information. Tracy
