BOGO. I'm such a sucker for a by one get one sale. That may have contributed to the impulsive purchase of overpriced popcorn that came in beautiful packaging. While it wasn't bad it really wasn't worth the beefy price tag of $5.00 for all 2 oz of snack air. Fleur de sel lacked that salty kick and the black truffle was pretty potent but not as satisfying as fresh popped popcorn. I much prefer my own or fresh movie theater popped corn compared to the prepackaged smanciness (like fanciness but with and s). Making your own fancy pop corn is easy, my favorite three savory pop corn flavors are Cajun corn, spicy ranch and cheddar bacon. They are so easy I feel guilty for even claiming them as a recipe.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup to 1 cup of pop corn kernels
Olive Oil or Butter for topping popped corn
coconut oil or other high temp oil
Cajun ~
Tony Chachere's
ranch ~
ranch powder mix (because I'm a slacker and I don't care)
cheddar bacon~
chop up crispy fried bacon either freshly made or from breakfast
toss with brewers yeast (taste oddly cheesy)

Popcorn. The one food I have no love for. But even I can see that fresh is probably best.
