Instead of corn syrup it's made with Agave Nectar which gives a very similar effect and allows the popcorn to stick together and it's also a healthier alternative. Although corn syrup is cheaper than Agave Nectar it's also got more negative side effects including weight gain and diabetes. This sugar free recipe is just one more healthier snack to try and cut down on you sugar intake!
