Food Blogger to Again Participate in Popcorn Popper Rating Contest

1. Food Blogger to Again Participate in Popcorn Popper Rating Contest Foodie Regina Braun to participate in the annual popcorn popper rating contest. She first entered in 2016 and has participated every year since. World famous food blogger, Regina Braun, announced today that her blog - Leelalicious.com - will once again participate in the popcorn popper rating contest for Christmas this year. In a written statement, Braun explained that this is a practice her blog adopted a number of years ago and that she has no intentions of letting slip this year. “It’s like a tradition now and I can’t possibly break tradition,” said Braun. The statement went on to say that the blog’s participation was well received in the last few years, which is motivating her to participate again. “People love to see us try out the different popcorn popping machinery and come up with winners after all is said and done. And so we will do it once again for christmas this year.” Braun explained that “a big reason for Leelalicious reviewing popcorn popping equipment is because popcorn is continuously making a comeback. It was the snack of choice for many

2. decades, but then slowly disappeared in the background as big corporations started introducing delicious but often extremely unhealthy snack alternatives.” “When you have savory snacks - like chips, doritos, cheetos, candies, or chocolate bars - conveniently packaged and ready to go, why would anyone opt for a less convenient alternative like popcorn?” Braun went on to say “Thanks to people becoming more health conscious and opting for natural whole foods instead of highly processed junk food, popcorn is steadily making a comeback. So much so that we at Leelalicious noticed a drastic increase in popcorn popper unit sales in 2019 so far.” “I for one am always happy to see people making healthier and more organic food choices. Especially when it comes to snacking.” When asked why popcorn is a healthier alternative to common store bought snacks, Braun explained how popcorn is unprocessed and a whole grain snack. “You literally drop a handful of popcorn kernels into a popper of choice and then - using heat - explode that kernel into what we now know as popcorn.” “There really isn’t anything processed or unhealthy about it. Unless of course you load it up with sugars, margarine, or other highly processed ingredients. If a pinch of salt is enough flavoring for you, you will be hard pressed to find another savory snack equally as healthy as popcorn.” concluded Braun.
