Any kind that I know of is gluten free. I like Orville Redenbacher the best, I almost eat it every day. My favorite kind is light butter, though sometimes I buy Smartpop butter but I like it far less. Mostly I eat light butter and I sometimes put spray butter on it. yum!! :P

I get the Pop Secret. It's from General Mills and I know they will list their gluten. My son likes that Spiderman is on the package. :lol:

I buy Newmans Own organic microwave popcorn plain and then melt my own organic butter and drizzle on!! Yum. The other kinds of newmans are gluten free also.

There are some popcorns (drizzle on types) that aren't gluten free. I can't remember which brand. I just remember that the stuff you're supposed to drizzle on it isn't gluten free.

I have been getting the Act II Butter. It is pretty good, and I like to get the individual bags -

Newman's Own microwave popcorn is gluten-free. For microwave popcorn, though, read the ingredients carefully. Some have malt (from barley) and other things in the 'butter solution'.

I've been making popcorn from the kernels on the stove; less anxiety about what's in it (and no guilt about how microwave popcorn plant workers were getting sick from production) and it tastes SO much better.

I use organic popcorn, coconut oil (really good for you), and Himalyan salt. It takes all of 5 minutes-I couldn't believe how easy it was. The oil and salt gives the 'popcorn' flavor - you don't need the butter. It makes really fluffy, non-soggy kernels with no slightly slimy aftertaste as from cheap microwave popcorn. I bag some when I make a snack to carry. Black popcorn's the best, imo, with softer insides.

If you want a 'kettle corn' flavor you can mix sugar in with the oil, but you have to be careful of the temp. then. I haven't tried this bec. I'm avoiding sugar.

Popcorn's actually really good for you as a snack food if you are eating the real thing - it has a lot of nutrients. Also, it's something I can have at other's houses without worrying about gluten or dairy or msg if popped from the kernels.

Sorry so long ... I've been thinking about popcorn a lot lately!

I do mine like you do, but I use Real Salt. I have some Himalayan salt but haven't tried it yet. I make a large batch of popcorn almost every night. Daughter sometimes eats it for breakfast. I was born in the midwest where it is considered a food group. Heh!

It's wonderful! I used to use olive oil. It's good too but the coconut oil is much better and has a slightly buttery flavor.

Wrong time of year, but for future reference Boy Scout Microwave Popcorn is gluten-free. I verified this last year - hopefully they won't change it.

Every day at 2:00, we make popcorn in my office. It is a little tradition we have. Guess it kind of breaks up our day or something.

We use Wegmans--gluten free on box

Popsecret and ActII both I have had no problems with.

      Potential celiac need advice

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶
