Answer
Brief Explanations:
A thesis statement presents the main idea or central claim of a text. The first sentence "Some people think that healthy snacks lack flavor, but that is not true" sets up the counter - argument (people's wrong belief about healthy snacks) and the author's main claim (healthy snacks can have flavor). The other sentences provide evidence (about popcorn) to support this claim. The sentence about popcorn being healthy and delicious is evidence, the consumption rate is further support, and the last option about popcorn's nutritional value etc. is also part of the evidence.
Answer:
Some people think that healthy snacks lack flavor, but that is not true.
