Popcorn has been all the rage lately. It’s been our go-to snack while we’re hunkering down at home and we’ve been finding all sorts of ways to jazz it up with fancy seasonings and toppings. Even Chrissy Teigen shared some recipes last week for easy popcorn seasonings that we’ve been loving but the key to excellent popcorn snacking is starting with great popcorn.
Believe it or not, microwaveable popcorn does not have to taste like a gross, greasy mess. Lots of brands sell high-quality popcorn that can easily be made in just a few minutes right in your microwave. Don’t believe us? Try any of the options ahead and let us prove you wrong.

Boom Chicka Pop
This popcorn is made with real butter and yes, you can taste the difference. It’s not greasy and has a nice, light flavor.
Newman’s Own Organics
This one has a light flavor too with just a touch of butter and it’s non-GMO and organic.
Skinny Girl
This brand comes in little mini bags full of butter and sea salt for maximum flavor. But the craziest part? A cup is only 25 calories!
Smart Pop
These snack-size bags are 100 calories making it easy to count your calories. They’re butter-flavored and super satisfying and great for a mid-day snack or a one-person movie binge.
Skinny Pop
If you hate butter but want some salt, try these mini bags from Skinny Pop. They use sea salt instead of butter to give you loads of flavor.
JOLLY TIME Simply Popped
This one combines a little bit of everything — butter, salt and oil. The ingredients are non-GMO and the flavor is incredible.
Kirkland Movie Theater Butter
Butter lovers, we didn’t forget about you. This is Costco’s signature brand and you can bypass the whole needing a membership thing by ordering it on Amazon.
Black Jewell Natural Microwave Hulless Popcorn
If you love popcorn but hate the hulls, this one is magically made without any hulls so you won’t crunch down on any surprises.
Naturals Simply Salted
Like others on our list, this one is just flavored with a little salt but this one is not a mini bag and is big enough to share with a few people.
