What do you season your popcorn with?

Brewers yeast, gives a nice tang

Yup, we’ve added that to popcorn for many years. Gives it kind of a cheese-like flavor and is very nutritious to boot.

I want to apologize to everyone about how confrontational I have been in this thread.

Clearly we all have different ideas about what is healthy and what isn't.

It's probably best if we don't discuss that any further, as Mr. Admin recommends.

Once read if you exercised daily and eat every thing the “experts” said you should eat, you would live ………wait for it…………….6 months longer.
Keep your 6 months and I’ll eat What I want.
Thanks and Peace Out.
Really people, we have way more important things to deal with than telling everyone what to eat.

Butter only (or that vegan-friendly oil at the movie theaters that tastes like butter).

Boaz · 2019-07-20T08:42:46.000Z

Yeah no off topic posts in these all important threads

For gods sake it's Budget light forum

It's obvious to me that Nutritional value and popcorn should not be allowed in the same thread .

But

Lets ask Barbie what she thinks ...:)

I know Barbie has eaten way too many processed foods and because of it has become 100% plastic ... Many have even speculated that this has also contributed to her total loss of genitalia .Even so she still remains beloved by Ken and millions of young children .

Where are my cat pictures??...

Proof that too much soy leads to aggression >

This dog was fed Purina Soy blend for weeks before he turned on one of Barbies friends after a sleep over .

I think this is when Billy Jack made Barbie drive her car into the lake ... I could be confused .

Think this last picture says it all ...

Don't put beer on your popcorn kids !

What is your serving size of popcorn, how much do you prepare in 1 session and eat for yourself all on your own?

Popcorn can be healthy or unhealthy, depending on how you season it. There’s nothing wrong with unhealthy if you do it sparingly.

I have tried a number of different toppings and found that the absolute best popcorn is lightly salted with butter, over a very high quality white popping corn. It’s fun to do other toppings, like grated cheese and spices… but the “mostly plain” way is my favored way.

I absolutely cannot stand microwaved popcorn packets. Now, it is possible to microwave naked kernel popcorn and it comes out decently. But AFAIC, stove top is the best way. I don’t live in a high humidity area, but the baking technique sounds like an interesting way to achieve a nice crispness.

“”“One of the earliest recipes for popping corn came from Daniel Browne during the 1840s. His method required one to “Take a grill, a half pint, or more of Valparaiso or Pop Corn, and put in a frying-pan, slightly buttered, or rubbed with lard. Hold the pan over a fire so as constantly to stir or shake the corn within, and in a few minutes each kernel will pop, or turn inside out.” He adds that salt or sugar can be added while the popcorn is still hot. The problem with this method was that butter tended to burn before reaching a high enough temperature and lard produced popcorn that was soaked with grease. It wasn’t until the second half of the nineteenth century that an efficient method for popping corn was developed. These newly invented “poppers” were made from boxes of tight wire gauze attached to a long handle; they were meant to be held over an open flame. Poppers offered several benefits, including the ability to contain the popped kernels while also keeping hands away from an exposed flame. “””

“”“The popcorn variety of maize was domesticated by Pre-Columbian indigenous peoples by 5000 B.C.E. It is a small and harder form of flint corn, most commonly found in white or yellow kernels. The stalks produce several ears at a time, though they are smaller and yield less corn than other maize varieties. The “pop” is not limited exclusively to this type of maize, but the flake of other types is smaller by comparison. Popcorn likely arrived in the American Southwest over 2500 years ago, but was not found growing east of the Mississippi until the early 1800s due to botanical and environmental factors. Today the Midwest is famous for its “Corn Belt,” but prior to the introduction of the steel plow during the 19th century, soil conditions in that region were not suitable for growing corn.

Evidence of popcorn’s first “pop” did not appear until the 1820s, when it was sold throughout the eastern United States under the names Pearl or Nonpareil. Its popularity quickly began to spread throughout the South and by the 1840s popcorn had started to gain a foothold in America. Prestigious literary magazines like New York’s Knickerbocker and the Yale Literary Magazine began referencing popcorn. By 1848, the word “popcorn” was included in John Russell Bartlett’s Dictionary of Americanisms. Bartlett claimed that the name was derived from “the noise it makes on bursting open.”“”
