I grew up where we had popcorn every Sunday night to watch Wonderful World of Disney. I am talking about 18 years of Sunday night popcorn. Dad, being a farmer, was very obsessed with the sourcing of the popcorn. Princeton Farms was about the only brand he knowingly would eat. Mom would pop the corn using a pressure cooker (without the pressure nozzle) while using Mazola corn oil. Butter rendered to a brown sauce made from cows his parents milked garnished the final product.
I have lost a back tooth biting down on a popcorn seed from my making, so I have trended towards buying pre-popped popcorn. Usually I am never satisfied with industrial prepared popcorn, but today was even worse than usual. I bought a bag of popcorn from a vendor that was new to me. Grilled sweetcorn "flavored" popcorn. It was so chemically enhanced I almost threw up at the first bite. Bad Bad Bad.
So this brings me to my question. There are a number of "organic" or "healthy" based/driven popcorn products, but have you ever found a brand that you consistently buy?
