About LIGHT BUTTER FLAVORED MICROWAVE POPCORN, LIGHT BUTTER
Meijer Light Butter Flavored Microwave Popcorn is a reduced-fat microwave popcorn product sold under the Meijer store brand of Meijer, Inc., the Midwest supercenter chain based in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The light designation refers to a lower fat content compared to the standard butter variety, achieved through reduced palm oil in the formulation. Whole grain popping corn is the primary ingredient, followed by palm oil as the cooking fat, salt for seasoning, natural flavor for the butter taste impression, and annatto coloring with citric acid for color stabilization. Notably absent are artificial butter flavors or diacetyl compounds common in older microwave popcorn formulations. No high-fructose corn syrup or artificial preservatives are present. Per 100 grams, the popped product provides approximately 400 calories, with carbohydrates at 70 grams, protein at 10 grams, fat at 11.67 grams, and a notable 13.3 grams of dietary fiber from the whole grain corn. The 30-gram serving delivers roughly 120 calories. Whole grain popcorn is recognized as a high-fiber snack when consumed plain or lightly seasoned. The product contains no major allergens in the ingredient list. Palm oil use may be of concern to consumers focused on sustainability, as palm cultivation is linked to deforestation in some regions.
