About this item
Back when Dan and I first started popping popcorn in our Mankato garage, we wanted to teach our kids the value of hard work and have a little fun along the way. We also wanted a snack we felt good about feeding them. Hugely flavorful snacks made with real, simple ingredients -- you know, ingredients you don’t have to scrunch up your face to say. Snacks packed with positivity, not guilt. Snacks that keep the joy in everyday snacking (and snacking and snacking). With bright bags that radiate all the love and fun that went into them from the beginning. After all, isn’t that what snacking should be about? We couldn’t agree more. Enjoy. XO, Angie Snacking should be both delicious and carefree. Always simple, always real, free of gluten, and preservatives. And because it’s made by Angie’s it’s a superstar combo of salty and sweet. At 70 calories per cup, even your boot camp instructor will approve.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a good gift for someone who follows a vegan or gluten-free diet?
Yes. The popcorn is vegan-certified, gluten-free, and non-GMO, so it is a safe, thoughtful pick for recipients with those dietary needs, and it still tastes like a treat rather than a compromise.
Can I use this as a hostess gift or housewarming snack basket add-in?
Absolutely. The 7 oz bag fits nicely into gift baskets, snack trays, and welcome totes, and the fun packaging looks intentional on a table rather than generic.
Is Boomchickapop a good stocking stuffer or small holiday gift?
The single 7 oz bag works well as a stocking stuffer, and the Pack of 2 lets you split one purchase into two small gifts or use one as a backup for unexpected company.
Does this work as a care package item for college students or military care packages?
It is a popular care package add-in. The bag is shelf-stable, the flavor is universally liked, and the clean-ingredient story is reassuring for parents sending snacks to their kids.
Is this a thoughtful gift for a friend who is trying to eat better?
Yes. A clean-label, vegan, gluten-free, 70-calories-per-cup snack feels intentional rather than generic, which makes it a good pick for friends focused on wellness.
Is this a safe last-minute gift I can grab quickly and still feel good about?
Yes. It is widely available, ships in a single sealed bag, and the packaging looks gift-ready on its own, so it works well for birthdays, thank-yous, and last-minute hostess moments.
How does Boomchickapop compare to gifting a bag of regular grocery store popcorn?
The vegan, gluten-free, and non-GMO certifications, plus the simple ingredient list, make it feel more like a considered gift than a generic grocery item, and the kettle corn flavor is more memorable than plain.
Is this a better gift than a candle or mug for someone who loves snacks?
For a snack-focused recipient, yes. A consumable gift like this gets enjoyed quickly, suits multiple dietary needs, and is unlikely to end up regifted or stored in a drawer.
Is Boomchickapop kettle corn a more appropriate gift than candy for a health-conscious friend?
Generally, yes. It delivers a sweet-and-salty treat experience with whole-grain popcorn, no preservatives, and a lighter calorie load per cup, which aligns better with a wellness-minded recipient.
Will my gift recipient actually enjoy the flavor, or is it a risk?
The sweet-and-salty kettle corn profile is a crowd-pleaser and is often the snack that converts people who say they 'don't really like popcorn.' It is a relatively safe flavor choice.
I'm worried gifting a snack feels impersonal. Does the packaging make it feel like a real gift?
The bright, colorful packaging reads as a feel-good, design-forward brand rather than a plain commodity, which helps the bag feel like a thoughtful present rather than a grocery item.
What if my recipient doesn't like kettle corn? Can the Pack of 2 still work as a gift?
You can split the Pack of 2 between two recipients, or keep one as a backup for your own pantry. It is a flexible purchase that reduces the risk of a single-bag gift miss.
Is it awkward to gift a bag of popcorn for a special occasion like a birthday?
It depends on the recipient, but pairing the bag with a card, a candle, or tucking it into a small basket turns it into a complete gift rather than a standalone item.
How should I store an opened bag to keep the popcorn fresh?
Fold the top of the bag over and use a clip or reseal tie, then store it in a cool, dry place like a pantry or desk drawer. Avoid leaving the bag in hot cars or in direct sunlight, as heat can soften the texture.
How many servings are in one 7 oz bag, and how big is a serving?
A 7 oz bag contains multiple servings, with each serving measured as one cup. At 70 calories per cup, you can pour a single serving for a light snack or scale up for sharing.
Can I microwave or cook this popcorn further at home?
No. This is a pre-popped, ready-to-eat kettle corn. You simply open the bag and pour. There is no additional cooking or heating required.
Is this popcorn compatible with a vegan, gluten-free, and non-GMO diet at the same time?
Yes. The recipe is vegan-certified, gluten-free, and non-GMO, so it is designed to fit all three dietary needs in a single bag without separate products.
Does the Pack of 2 come as two separate bags or one combined bag?
The Pack of 2 ships as two individual 7 oz bags, which makes it easy to keep one at home and one at the office, or to split between family members and guests.
What should I expect when I open the bag for the first time?
You will find a single 7 oz bag of pre-popped sweet-and-salty kettle corn ready to eat. There is no setup, no popping required, and no accessories needed. Just open, pour, and enjoy.
Is this snack safe for people with common food allergies?
The recipe is vegan, gluten-free, and free from trans fat and preservatives. However, it is a corn-based product, so anyone with a corn sensitivity should review the full ingredient list on the bag before eating.
Does the kettle corn coating leave a sticky or messy residue?
The sweet coating is light and dry to the touch. Most people find that it does not leave a sticky film on fingers, though a quick wipe is helpful after eating a large bowl.
What is the difference between kettle corn and regular popcorn?
Kettle corn is popcorn that is cooked with a small amount of sugar and salt, giving it a sweet-and-salty flavor in every bite, whereas regular popcorn is typically just salted. This product uses that kettle corn style in a pre-popped, ready-to-eat form.
