Greetings! 





 

How do you like your popcorn?

Example flavourings/mixes: Salt and Pepper, Salt and Vinegar, Cheddar, Caramel, Spicy, Chocolate, Dill Pickle, Garlic and Herb, Butter and Salt, and so forth and so forth. 

I mainly enjoy the usual butter and salt combo, but on occasion I get in the mood for spicy - recently tried a brand with Habanero. Tasty!

I am more of a sweet snack person rather that salty so it would be caramel.  I do like poppycock but that is definitely sweet rather than salty.

With real butter and salt. There used to be a Tabasco cheese popcorn that has been discontinued. I loved that one too. Not big on sweet popcorn. I never liked Cracker Jack and such.

Butter and salt..

or.. Nacho style. Pop fresh popcorn. spray cookie sheet, spread popcorn on the sheet. coat with seaoning of choice (I usually use butter/salt popcorn seasoning, my friend likes chili seasoning). Top with shredded cheese of choice (mexican cheese for me). Stick in oven until cheese is all melted. scoop into bowl and enjoy.

Real butter, lightly salted. Second is with fresh cracked black pepper and salt. I don't need butter with that one.

I like my popcorn with real butter and salt. Have you ever tried frozen popcorn. You add the butter, lots of butter, and put it in the freezer for a half an hour or so. It kinda looks like caramel popcorn. Surprisingly good.

Love caramel corn and poppycock, things like that. Home caramel corn is wonderful stuff.

Never tried frozen popcorn.

For years, we had a tradition at the holidays, where our grandmother would make sugared popcorn. She used red and green food coloring and would color some of the popcorn red, some of it green. After she passed away, my son and I would make it, but we eventually stopped. I haven't had it in years now. The salt with the sugar made the popcorn taste so good and, with the colors, it was very festive.

I've also made popcorn with coconut oil. Really good. I made it the old fashioned way in a pot on the stove. Melt the coconut oil, add the kernels, pop then add salt. It's yummy!

Oh boy...I hate to even admit this, but I love that nasty oil that the theaters like to call "Butter Flavored."  Don't know why, but I do!

I am not big on popcorn, the husks gets me and if I do eat it I want caramel. But my kids loves it. They cant get enough of it. They take after my Daddy on that.

Got room under there for one more? I like it too when I go to the movies. I like it even better when I dump some Milk Duds in it and stir that up.I go to the movies a few times a year and get popcorn maybe 1 out of 3 times but when I do, it definitely has what they call butter on it. Once a year? I can eat it any way I want.


When I make popcorn at home I use real butter or coconut oil because I have it there.

Awwwwww...It's a date! And ya know, I've reached that age where I'd actually rather be "on a date" with a friend, even under a computer table with a snippy tortie, than on a "real" date.  I used to feel sorry for little old ladies who live alone with their cat(s).  Now I am one, and it's a sweet deal!
