Hot on the heels of launching a limited-edition popcorn flavor called [Netflix](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/proper-x-netflix-chilli-caramel-popcorn) and Chilli Caramel, Proper Snacks and Netflix debuted a first-of-its-kind pillow-sized [Sweet and Salty Popcorn](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pop-secret-readytoeat-popcorn) variety for at-home snacking. The shareable Proper x Netflix Sweet & Salty Pillow Pack was expressly created for cozy nights in and its generous size helps to reduce the hassle and distraction of needing to refill a snack bowl, ensuring more screen time.

Each 230-gram popcorn bag contains ten servings and shares a high-fiber snack enhanced with natural flavoring. This vegan-friendly and gluten-free popcorn snack is exclusively available at [Tesco](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honey-roast-peanuts) and sports an artist-created design that references the look of the original Propercorn Sweet & Salty packs.
