Connect Snacks Deploys PFAS-Free Microwave Popcorn Bags

January 5, 2023: 12:00 AM EST
Connect Snacks’ Better For You Microwavable Popcorn uses popcorn bags made from FDA-approved, grease-resistant, PFAS-free papers. PFAS is commonly used in the lining of microwavable popcorn bags to keep oil from soaking out and to prevent the bag from burning. However, PFAS compounds have a tendency to leach into the product, which can lead to negative health effects including cancer, liver damage, decreased fertility, and increased risk of asthma and thyroid disease. Connect Snacks’ popcorn is available to purchase on the brand’s website and on Amazon for $54.99 for 36 bags.
