About BUTTER MICROWAVE POPCORN, BUTTER
Market Pantry Butter Microwave Popcorn is a shelf-stable microwave bag popcorn from Target's Market Pantry value brand, recorded in this USDA entry at approximately 500 calories per serving with palm oil and soy lecithin as key fat and emulsifier components, and beta carotene as a natural yellow colorant. No real butter is declared in this formulation, distinguishing it from the companion Market Pantry Butter Microwave Popcorn entry (USDA ID 1923164) which lists butter explicitly. The butter flavor in this version is delivered through butter-type flavoring rather than actual dairy butter, which means the product's taste profile mimics buttered popcorn without contributing milk allergens from the fat component, though soy lecithin introduces a soy allergen consideration.
Beta carotene is a provitamin A carotenoid and natural pigment used as a yellow-orange colorant in many butter-flavored snack foods, providing the golden appearance associated with buttered popcorn without synthetic dyes. Soy lecithin is a byproduct of soybean oil processing used as an emulsifier to help distribute oil and flavoring evenly through the popcorn during popping. The palm oil base provides a solid fat with a high smoke point suitable for microwave popcorn production. This entry is one of three Market Pantry Butter Microwave Popcorn USDA records, each capturing a different formulation or production run, with IDs 1923165 and 1923164 representing companion variants. Consumers should review current product packaging for the most accurate formulation and allergen information, as microwave popcorn recipes can vary across production periods.
