[kenshamrock]

Hey.

Im cutting right now for a comp. Is fat free salt free butter free popcorn good or bad for you, i know i know no butter must taste like crap, but its acually good.

any help would be great

In my Glycemic Index book it lists popcorn as somewhat high GI. There aren't many calories though in plain popcorn. You could hot air pop it and make it even worse.

Popcorn really isn't the best...high GI, high carbs.

It can be used if combined with a protein food, which will lower its GI...or, as a post workout high GI carb with whey.

unless you're at the movies, I wouldn't eat popcorn if you want to cut up

If it's fat, salt and butter free.. just eat cardboard... it's about the same for taste, right?
