Not sure why corn syrup and caramel candy is considered good for diabetics... but I am posting this in case someone knows for sure they can use this. Take care, Gloria The directions call for finishing this easy popcorn snack by baking it to harden the syrup. If you don't mind sticky popcorn, you can skip the baking step. In any case, be sure to cool the popcorn before serving, as hot syrup can burn your mouth.
