This is just a bag of plain microwave popcorn popped up and tossed with grated parmesan and a little olive oil so the cheese actually sticks. It takes about five minutes, uses one bowl, and gives you a big bowl of snack that's way more satisfying than butter flavored bags. Great for movie night when you're tracking macros but still want something crunchy and salty to eat a lot of.
