I’m having a difficult time deciding which popcorn to purchase, white or yellow. I’ll let you know which tastes better, I plan on buying both.

Learned something new. I always used to associate big and fluffy kernels with quality. Being a berry lover, I should know better. I love those tiny alpine strawberries! It just goes to show how pervasive the Size Matters myth can be.

Interesting. People must be spending their time eating that tasty popcorn instead of blogging about it. I am thinking movies are the natural tie-in. What is your favorite “pop corn movie”? A post about that might be a conversation starter.

Wow, more popcorn news. Like Americans we Australians are popcorn fantatics.
I like it buttered, with toffee, without anything except a little salt and the sugar/salt flavoured. Just the smell of popcorn is wild.

Keep up the great work of keeping us informed about popcorn!

Oh, so good of you to limit yourself to a mini bag! I am going to do my ‘About’ page next, and I have an amusing anecdote regarding mini bags that will be on that page. I not only can’t seem to limit myself to a small amount, I have now acclimated myself to a full batch for myself. If someone else is present during popcorn feeding time, I have to make a second batch…scary.

My favorite is Orville Redenbacher’s Movie Butter! Probably the most fattening, worst kind for you popcorn, but that’s why I only buy the mini bags

You would think gobs of people would be talking about popcorn. You may have started a new trend here! Great article, that’s a lot of popcorn!

I have a strong preference for white over yellow when it comes to fresh corn but I guess I didn’t really appreciate the difference when it comes to pop corn. I think it is because I tend to go the easy route with microwave popcorn.

Great stuff, Mary! There’s a local grower here who grows a mixed white/yellow kernal corn that everyone raves about as the best popcorn ever. Unfortunately, I’ve never had the chance to try it. Popcorn is one of those foods I sorely miss. It went the way of lots of wonderful things when diverticulitis raised its ugly head. Add high blood pressure and high cholesterol and there goes the salt and butter.
I’ll just drool as I munch on the virtual stuff I’m sure is pouring out of your popper even now.
