I stumbled upon this when I was trying to figure out how many calories oil-popped popcorn has compared to air-popped, but I'm so confused…

Are they basically the same or not? It doesn't make sense to me how oil popped can be basically the same as air popped, but at the same time multiple sites say they either have close to no difference or have a ~100 calorie difference.

Popcorn is my hero when I feel like binging but don't want to go overboard on high-calorie snacks, but I don't have any way to air-pop my kernels and my parents would never buy a popcorn maker just for me. :')
