Is popcorn clean since it is whole grain?

    Be careful how you season it. Air popped and unseasoned is the cleanest.

    Clean Food

    Fresh fruit, vegetables, meat, nuts, eggs, dairy, and whole grains are all a go on a clean diet, but keep in mind that keeping these clean is hard these days. With sweetened fruit, processed meat, margarine, and tortillas made with refined grains it's not as easy to eat clean as you may think. Some stick to organic fruits and vegetables and grass-fed beef, but it's not required. If you go beyond the produce section, staying within an eating clean plan means avoiding chemical based-preservatives, food coloring, trans fats, and artificial sweeteners. It also means skipping the sweetened nuts container for the bag of raw nuts. Because solid fats and added sugar make up 35% of the average American's daily caloric intake, making this switch could help you lose pounds.

    As far as I understood, you can buy popcorn, organic in the bag, and make it in an air popper. You can drizzel a little olive oil and some nutritional yeast or maybe onion powder on it.
