LesserEvil Popcorn?

I just ran across this blog posting about a company called LesserEvil popcorn. The blog author ripped into the company pretty good, and I wonder if it's justified. What are your thoughts?

Here's the blog entry (btw, the rest of the website is pretty funny and well written).

Meh. Stupidity Tracker-dude is reaching pretty hard as he tries to summon up outrage. Yeah, the "naturalness" of the product is marginal-- but it's hardly the worst offender out there. Let's be honest; getting worked up over marketing is a mug's game.

And I agree with Kim that the idea is a clever one: not healthy, just less unhealthy. I also like their logo and design: the little angel/devil faces are cute. If the price was right, I'd give it a try.
