It sounds like an odd pairing – Smartfood and Krispy Kreme doughnuts.
But, according to Smartfood’s website, the brand hit grocery shelves in 1985 “with a very smart idea: to create great tasting, ready-to-eat popcorn with quality ingredients.”
And as far as Krispy Kreme’s nutritional aspects, its Original Glazed has 190 calories, 50 calories less than another national brand and 185 milligrams less sodium. (Although a Krispy Kreme Original Glazed is a bit smaller.)
When Smartfood creators Andrew Martin and Annie Withey started making their cheese popcorn, they used real cheese, not like the cheese popcorn that was already on the market that seemed to glow in the dark.

“What’s important to me is my customers having a good experience,” Debra Moore said.
Moore started Mama Moore’s Gourmet Popcorn in 2012, selling fresh-popped kettle corn at area fairs and festivals. The veteran had worked in manufacturing and the corporate world for years, but was looking for a new challenge not to mention a way to help pay for her youngest son’s college tuition.
