Grandpa's Oven Caramel Corn: Risk and Nutrition
People often ask me questions like these: Is diet coke good for me? Is High Fructose Corn Syrup bad for me? I always answer like: It all depends on how much you eat it or drink of it. If eaten too much anything can be very bad.
Yes, Grandpa’s Oven Caramel Corn is a good product (no red segments in the diagram) but “DyeDiet recommended” does not mean that one can jump on it and eat out one pack after another. While foreign additives risk is zero, DDFI = 0/13 = 0, and nutritional value is descent, DDNF = 13/9 ~ 1.4, you know, there is no such thing on the earth as absolutely safe food. If you can die of water intoxication, it is much easier with anything else like butter, sugar and popcorn. So understanding and practicing moderation should become our internal safeguard habit.
With every serving (30 g cup) of Grandpa’s Caramel Corn you will get 16 g of sugar, 2.5 g of saturated fat and 1 g of protein. Is sugar bad for you? You know the answer above. But beware of the risks posed by artificial sweeteners like aspartame (see Carcinogenic Effects of Aspartame) and sucralose (see A Role of Sweet Taste).
So enjoy Grandps’s popcorn in moderation!

OH MY Goodness, We got some of this for christmas, it is soooo very good, we had never had this kind before, but we will be getting more soon, my husband & I love it !!!
Thank You Grandpa
You need to watch yourself you can eat too much, it is so good !!
I can`t find any at our Walmart, just the different breads, can this be ordered ? my sister has a birthday coming up in a couple months & i know she will love it.
Well, on the company’s website http://www.grandpasoven.com/ it says “Sold Exclusively at Walmart.”
You can write to them via Contact Us option. So my suggestion would be to visit (or call to) another Walmart store in your area. Another option would be to cook it for yourself. Here are a couple of links for the recipes: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/paula-deen/grandma-pauls-caramel-corn-recipe/index.html and http://allrecipes.com/recipe/grandpas-popcorn-balls/
Final note. I do not see the GP Caramel Corn all the time at the Walmart I come. It comes and goes. So maybe you need to ask someone at Walmart when to expect another Grandpa’s wave.
Good luck, and please, don’t forget – moderation!
I BEEN LOOKING FOR THESE POPCORN AT MY LOCAL WALMART IN LAFAYETTE,LA
CAN I ORDER THEM FROM SOMEWHERE.
Yeah, this is hard to find product. They sell it at Walmart in OK. Let me check it with the manufacturer once again.
This is the best carmale corn I have ever found. I discovered it at the Walmart in Elko, NV. I used to buy a bag every time I was there. Then one day they stopped carrying it. I have asked the store manager repeatedly, to order more but they just give me lip service. Get with it Walmart!
