1. Butter, Himilayan sea salt and parmesan equals, addictive 😎

[Control-Z]

2. Just butter.

It's got enough salt so no need to add any. (Of course I know that if it's unsalted butter the no salt needed would not apply.)

[ghostsinthemachine]

3. Cheddar cheese or Parmesan

[Kleveland]

4. Just Kosher salt on mushroom popcorn....

Popped in corn oil with homemade chile infused oil added.

Generally Chile de Arbol used to make the oil.

You can also just cook the chiles in the popping oil until fragrant, then remove them before adding corn.

I use 1/4 oil to 1 - 1 1/4 cup of kernels popped in a stainless dutch oven on high heat.

5. Cayenne pepper and salt.

[gblady]

6. So good ....

My favorite popcorn toppings are a mix of olive oil, garlic powder, nutritional yeast, and grated parmasean cheese. YUMMY!

[jmowreader]

7. Caramel

Preferably homemade, and it's easy to do.

10. lived in UK for a while

shortly after arriving, went to a movie, ordered popcorn--it was sweet, with caramel!

gah



not really against caramel corn, it was just so not what i was expecting

[Warpy]

8. Has to be one on top of the stove

That microwave crap is terrible.

13. ...

19. I bought a $15 air popper and it is FANTASTIC!

I've had that thing for years. No oil of any kind needed.

[shanny]

9. butter, garlic and parmesan

[forgotmylogin]

11. I'm for butter and salt...

however, I can also get down with garlic powder and parmesan.

I have friends who love to sprinkle ranch powder over popcorn (buttered or not).

Back when flavored microwave popcorn was a new thing, they did a "sour cream and onion" variety that was amazing. I don't know why they don't make that anymore.

ON EDIT: I googled a bit, and now remember it was a seasoning packet that came with the bag. Now I have to find that stuff sold in a shaker.

[fleur-de-lisa]

18. "Sour cream and onion" . . .

sounds delicious!

[pansypoo53219]

12. i have been making kettlecorn. WHITE popcorn in kettle. found shaking turbanado sugar or brown sugar

in the dry season better. i did try cinnemon. that was good.

[Kali]

14. foamed butter and salt

I tried some w butter and nutritional yeast and it was pretty good. someone brought it to a meeting.

[NotASurfer]

15. Don't make microwave pork rinds indoors

Bought those once out of curiosity. Had to air the house out and the microwave smelled like pork rinds (not in a good way) for weeks.

I'd rather burn popcorn, unpleasant as that is.

16. I made my pan of popcorn last night just before twitter started trending #TedCruz

I watched it bloom from 8K tweets, to more then 175K before I fell asleep around 5am. I learned,
1. no soy butter on popcorn
2. I will never check out #Ted Cruz on trending topics, expecting to go to sleep much earlier. I laughed way way too hard.

[fleur-de-lisa]

17. Butter, salt, and really good Parmeson.

[Floyd R. Turbo]

20. Kraft Mac & Cheese Cheddar Powder 😋

[Sentath]

21. I just got some of that for related purposes

While I was at it I ordered some tomato powder.

[Floyd R. Turbo]

22. Oh wow! Tomato powder! 😋

[Afromania]

27. such a thing exists?!?

[Sentath]

28. Here's where I got mine

29. I'm going to need to give this a try, thanks!

[IcyPeas]

23. wait? Brewer's Yeast?

Please explain. I know what this is, but I've never heard of it for a topping for popcorn.

[irisblue]

25. to me it has a cheese taste.

I first tried it @ a local independent move theater on the pop corn and enjoyed it. For me, I put the pop corn in a brown paper grocery sized bag, then immediately shake on brewers yeast, close the bag, shake the bag to distribute the brewers yeast, then pour it into a bowl to eat.
Hope this helps.

[IcyPeas]

32. I am intrigued and must try this. (I'm usually with the butter and salt crowd)

[rurallib]

33. thanks for asking - really got my attention also

will be trying soon.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

24. Kale flakes and sriracha sauce.

Just kidding. That would be terrible, though quite fashionable.

[Sentath]

31. OTOH there's always that wonderful dust in the bottom of the sea salt and brewer's yeast kale chips

That and a pinch of smoked hot paprika?

Might just work.




Then again I'm the guy that read the 'flop-tarts' cartoon on the pop-tarts box and thinks they missed the boat declaring grilled banana a failure. They just need a little brown sugar caramel and that is a Bananas Foster pop-tart!

[Afromania]

26. sea salt and a bit of white sugar

[NCjack]

30. Plain butter and chipotle powder. Issue warning before sharing. nt

[rurallib]

34. we tutored some kids who used to put ranch dressing on theirs

thought I was going to lose it first time they asked for the ranch dressing for their popcorn.

[Drahthaardogs]

35. Cumin and salt is great if you are watching calories

Smokey and salty flavors

[WePurrsevere]

36. Normally butter & salt but we also love to...

Butter and ground bacon, Drizzle melted peanut butter... caramel... hot fudge... maple syrup, shake parmesan and butter on it and my newest favorite... a Balsamic reduction made from Balsamic Vinegar and brown sugar drizzled over it... it's so good.

We love popcorn... (hulls not so much.. lol)

[True Dough]

37. I don't like popcorn

But I do eat carmel corn! Also candy corn!
