Popcorn poll!

[Metalhead]

This poll is for the finest of cinematic culinary treats - popcorn!

Do you love it? Do you hate it? Or are you one of those unfortunates who cannot have it due to medical conditions?

My mom used to just add some sugar to it. Still not a great snack, but nostalgic.

Hey. Popcorn is what I have for supper, probably five
nights a week.

Air popped.
With peanut oil, nutritional yeast, and kosher salt.

Sometimes with oregano, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg,
and/or black pepper. In addition to the oil, yeast, and salt.
The spices either individually, or two or three in combination.

Usually I have an apple or more than one apple,
and peanut butter, too.

I remember I used to add lemon juice to popcorn when I was younger. Not bad.

And heck ya to popcorn for dinner.

Not a fan of popcorn, I'm afraid; I don't like the taste of it and I didn't like it when it got stuck in my teeth.

It was always caramel popcorn here, for many years.
Now I see salted is the in thing, salted chocolate too..yuk

I enjoy popcorn because my body treats it like a whole grain, slowly releasing the carbs rather than spiking my blood sugar. As a crunchy treat it is far better for me than potato chips. Back in Chicago there is Garrett popcorn. Great Cheese corn and buttery Caramel corn. Going home through ORD, I always pick up some.

Damn...I can hear that microwave popcorn in my cupboard calling my name!

Not a fan of it getting stuck in my teeth, especially because I had braces for a long time, and I don't like the aftertaste... but I do prefer extra butter, or movie theatre popcorn. I occasionally make popcorn in the microwave at home but typically only when I have parties.

I found cheddar, and kettle corn in a one bag. It was great.

Popcorn dinner is a treat to keep my hands busy, and l am chewing like crazy, therefore sufficiently distracting me from my travails of the day.

Which reminds me of:
Screaming Yellow Zonkers popcorn which was sold many years ago.

I was never a big fan. Making popcorn was a great science lesson when I was about 5 years old but actually eating it? No thank you.

Extra butter theatre--YUM.
Microwave at home will do though for evening tv.

For Halloween, I may have between 15 and 60 little visitors. I don't want to be stuck with forty cheap, overpackaged candy treats, so I make popcorn with garlic butter, and call it "Vampire Repellent." I can make it on demand, and just have a decent size snack left over. The kids like a break from all the sugar, and getting a big beer cup with a paper lid taped on looks impressive. I took two years off, but this year, I'll probably just put them out on a table and replenish it between visitors.
