So, I am HUNGRY. I don't have many calories left, and am craving salt/sweet...SO

I have smart start (I think thats what its called) popcorn.
I popped some, sprinkled on some salt, pepper, garlic powder and juice of half a lime! SOOOO GOOOD.

And

I decided to make a rootbeer float!

Diet a&W and cool whip free! ahhhhhh! lol

    LOVE popcorn! It is the one thing I eat every day! When I get up in the morning I always add the popcorn as my evening snack so that no matter what happens my popcorn is accounted for and something I know I can have. I just finished it now :wink:

    Love popcorn too... as for the cool whip thing, I used to make "ice cream" by keeping the light/fat free cool whip in the freezer and then mixing in one of those little individual mixed fruit cups....YUMMY!!!!

    I am kind of confused as far as calories though. On my bag, it says something ridiculous, like 15 or 35 for half the bag (can't remember which!). I ate the whole bag lol. But, when I go to record it, it's coming up as like 300 calories!

    These popcorn ideas sound great! and the float.

    I like the hot sauce idea...I've done parmesan cheese and spicy seasonings too.

    Popcorn is my go-to snack! Sometimes I sprinkle some nutritional yeast on it for some protein, and a nutty, buttery flavor. :)

    I am addicted to popcorn. Never get tired of it. I will definately try the toppings.

    As for the Diet A &W and cool whip I never heard of it and it sounds wonderful!

    Thank you!

    I was just about to suggest nutritional yeast. It's one of my favorite ways to eat popcorn.

    I assume that you just get this from the health food store?

    I buy it right in my local grocery store (Publix). I use it a lot on roasted vegetables too, anything that I would put Parmesan cheese on (sometime I do a mix of Parmesan & nutritional yeast).
