How we ranked

Based on the per-100 g values in USDA FoodData Central branded-food data, which come from manufacturers' labels. The ranking includes products in the matching USDA food category whose name contains “popcorn”, excluding names that contain “caramel corn”, “kettle corn”, ordered by kcal, lowest first. When two popcorns have the same calories, the one with less saturated fat ranks higher. Values under 250 kcal per 100 g are treated as data-entry errors and left out. Matching by name can include or miss products, and formulations change — check the label.
