Nutritionally, Poppables generally provide high carbohydrate content (71.4g per serving), moderate fat (16.07g), and low protein (7.14g). They are relatively low in fiber (3.57g) and contain minimal essential vitamins like calcium (35.71mg) or iron (1.07mg). As a processed snack, they are calorie-dense (428.57 kcal) and lack vitamins C or D, making them less nutritionally substantial compared to whole, fresh options.
