Popcorn poll.

I am eating a bag of microwave popcorn right now.

Do you like popcorn?

 

[Judge]

Yeah, reminds me of when the lonely old blind man put two bags of popcorn into the microwave and popped it for his guest, who just happened to be Frankenstein's monster.

Where the creature happily bellowed, "Gooooooooooooooooooooooood!"

(The cigars came later.)

Salty sweet popcorn at the cinema is the best.

I love Caramel Corn and Cheese Corn (with Cheddar!) from the Garrett Popcorn Shop. Anytime I transit through O'Hare I will pick up a bag. And, this Easter they are making a Frango Chocolate Mint popcorn!!!

Regular popcorn is good, air popped or popped in a pot. Microwave popcorn hardly works right. Popcorn sold in sealed bags in stores taste good, too.

It definitely needs salt. Being a vegan I like it with margarine or spicy - I’ve gotten Cajun popcorn from the store. There’s even a vegan “cheese” style popcorn made with nutritional yeast, which is good. I’ve had kettle corn, which is good. I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a vegan version of caramel corn, too. (I used to like popcorn at the movie theater before becoming a vegan - I’ve recently heard a rumor that the “butter” they put on it isn’t real.)

There’s also a recipe for peanut butter popcorn I used to make where you melt margarine and peanut butter together, and pour it over the popcorn. That was really good.

I like Orville Redenbacher's, it's my preferred brand.

I do not trust the times they tell you to do with microwave popcorn because my microwave is only 900 watts and if I do the time like they say on the bag, then the microwave will finish when like half the dang kernels aren't even popped.

Pop Secret in the microwave with butter.
Great for watching tv with.

The movie theatres do indeed have a way of making the best popcorn.

Kettle corn and cheese corn are good too.

I like it but since I had a twisted bowel incident and subsequent operation, na, gonna avoid it. Along with jacket potatoes and other possible blockers! After many years enjoying it though...

I dance to popcorn

Once l came upon salty, sweet, cheddar in one bag. Delish. Once in awhile, carmel popcorn is nice. In Hawaii, we mix in Japanese seaweed little crackers which they sell in the theater, with the popcorn, ono delicious.

I eat it like once a year but enjoy it when I do.

I am going to the movies when I get off work today to see the new David Cronenberg flick. I pre-ordered a large bag of popcorn with extra butter and a serving of non-alcoholic beer. Strange that I have to be 21 for the non-alcoholic beer, but ah well.

It's my experience that with Orville Redenbacher popcorn to pay serious attention to the expiration dates of each packet. Otherwise it may not pop to completely fill the bag, and the kernels will look a bit wilted.

Sadly I have a nasty habit of buying such things and then forgetting about them until much later.

In essence, this brand of outdated popcorn becomes like so many others....and sucks. So eat it before it goes bad! When still fresh, IMO it has always stood well above its competition.

I give it out for Halloween. I can make it just ahead of demand, so there's not a lot left over, or an early closing. The leftovers are something I don't mind eating. I promote the notion of eating organically on the label. It is delivered in a beer cup, so it looks big. A salty snack is probably a welcome break from all the cheap sweets, The paper label taped over the top declares it is VAMPIRE REPELLENT - made with garlic butter. However, last year I learned that almost half the kids skip my house.

Used to enjoy it but I now suffer from dysphagia and it’s one of the foods I have to avoid.
