Is Boom chika pop OK for gout?
Boom chika pop by Angie's’s label runs to 5 ingredients, from Whole grain popcorn on down. Kettle and 'sweet' popcorn often use honey or a fructose glaze — but this one skips it: no HFCS, agave or honey, and no purine-rich extract on the list. The label lists cane sugar as an added sweetener; check the total sugar per serving. That lands it near the top of our gout list — 95/100.

What we found on the label
- No yeast extract, meat/fish extract, or anchovy — the purine sources that hide in savory packaged foods.
- Low total sugar — 1.0 g per 100 g.
- Fiber — 8.6 g per 100 g, which slows sugar absorption.
Worth knowing
- Uses monk fruit — no effect on uric acid, but sugar alcohols can upset digestion in larger amounts.
