Popcorn, a popular and wholesome snack, has a  carbohydrate content that varies based on its  

preparation. Plain, air-popped popcorn contains  about 30 grams of carbohydrates per 3-cup serving.

This includes about 5 to 6 grams of dietary  fiber, which is beneficial for digestive health.

However, when butter, sugar,  or aother toppings are added,  

the carbohydrate content  can increase significantly.

For instance, caramel-coated popcorn can  have much higher sugar and carb content.

It's also worth noting that the fiber  in popcorn contributes to its overall  

carb count but has a lesser  impact on blood sugar levels,  

making it a relatively healthy choice for  those monitoring their carbohydrate intake.

Always consider the serving size  and the type of toppings used when  

calculating the total carbohydrate  content of your popcorn snack.
