Lesser Evil reviews and discussion

Reviews mention

  • Clean organic ingredients list
  • Distinct buttery flavor profile
  • Airy crunchy popcorn texture
  • Creative seasonal flavor lineup
  • Noticeable coconut oil taste
  • Occasionally light seasoning flavor
  • Inconsistent flavor execution
  • Crispness fades after opening

Lesser Evil earns strong reviews as a flavorful, cleaner snack brand that largely delivers—especially Himalayan Gold and Pink Salt popcorn, No Cheese Cheesiness puffs, Space Balls, and seasonal flavors—praised for airy crunch, authentic buttery taste without dairy, and simple organic ingredients. Reviews also flag weaknesses: coconut oil’s noticeable taste isn’t for everyone, some flavors run lightly seasoned or uneven, bags can stale or turn soggy after opening, and a few seasonal or cheese variants miss the mark.

  • I love their cheese no cheese flavor. The bag might make it through one day in my home.

  • such good popcorn with multiple flavors. Feels good to know Im actually enjoying my snack without feeling guilty about all toxic ingredients other snacks have. Also compared to other healthy/safe snacks, these actually are flavorful and not just 5 chip in a bag.

  • I always thought popcorn was all the same. Man, was I work. The ghee and cheese popcorn are next level - no other popcorn compares.

  • Lesser evil has the best organic popped popcorn on the market hands down. We love the kettle corns and salty. The packaging is so welcoming . The price point is comparative to tother on the market. The popcorn never taste stale.

  • The pink salt popcorn is insanely delicious and addictive. I love that only minimal ingredients are used and that they make it with coconut oil. It’s somehow both healthier and tastier than traditional popcorn!

  • I tried Lesser Evil's popcorn only because I have been looking for healthier alternatives to my everyday snacks. I wasn't disappointed at all. It was fresh, had a nice crunch, and satisfied my snack craving. It had the right amount of salt and did not taste overly processed. It's definitely in my lineup of regular snacks now.

  • The butter flavor popcorn is one of my favorite snacks to buy! It has a subtle, yet tasty butter flavor, but doesn’t feel oily when eating it. I’ve hooked my boyfriend on it too (who was once a skeptic). The thing that sets this popcorn apart is that it’s cooked in coconut oil which gives it a subtle coconut flavor in the best way.

  • I've tried the butter flavor the sea salt and both are good. Hard to stop eating once you start!

  • Absolutely delicious and clean ingredients in their regular popcorn. A favorite snack

  • This is my favorite bagged popcorn! I go specially to Whole Foods just to get this it’s that good, and love that it’s made with good ingredients.

  • Lesser Evil cheesy no cheese flavor is my absolute weakness and favorite guilt-free snack. Even my dad loves it! It's my go to snack to bring for groups since it's healthy and vegan.

  • Such an innovative and clever brand. Hooked on the sea salt popcorn, and can’t wait to try the other flavors/product lines.

  • I LOVE this popcorn. Every flavor I've tried has been fantastic, and I love that they are using organic ingredients. That's really important for corn-based products. I regularly recommend popcorn as a healthy snack for folks. I also love their unique flavors like Hibiscus I recently found at CVS. Literally addicting! The perfect combo of salty and sweet. They can truly do no wrong!

  • A go to snack. I love their buttered popcorn (Himalayan ). It has just the right amount of buttery flavor and salt. You can really taste the good ingredients. I really enjoy not feeling heavy or guilty after having this delicious snack.

  • HIMALAYAN PINK SALT go to for organic popcorn. The perfect hint of salt. Stays crunchy throughout the bag and doesn’t become stale even after a few days after opening.

  • Super tasty healthy snack! My whole family loved it. Unfortunately not something we can afford to regularly stock at home, but it’s a nice grab when on sale. We tried the sweet and salty I believe.

  • My go-to snack brand. The popcorn is soo delicious without being unhealthy. The paleo puffs are amazing too, I love that I can taste the coconut in them!

  • I’m a popcorn lover and this is a delicious bag of popcorn. Short and to the point lol

  • Feedback

    The himalayan pink sea salt popcorn is fantastic and only has a few healthy ingredients. Some other snacks I love are the sour cream and onion sun poppers and the no cheese chessiness paleo puffs (healthier cheetos)!

  • This popcorn is so good! Love the sea salt and the buttery flavor.
