| - Wanting to try a new popcorn place since my favorite "Popcorn Girl" is further from my house, I tried this out.
In comparison, the popcorn is much lighter than Popcorn Girl and more subtle. Not sure if that's good or bad, depending on your preference but I do tend to feel a little less guilty eating this. It appears it's been lightly seasoned vs the other which seems covered in butter and seasonings-but who knows the real ingredients at each place.
What bothered me was the worker. She was nice as can be letting me try whatever I wanted and was giving me her opinion on flavors, which was appreciated. Whenever I tried one flavor, she stuck her hand inside the bucket bare hands and all, no gloves, no scooper and grabbed a few pieces and ate it while I ate my sample and when I asked her questions she had food in her mouth, I almost felt like I had to wait for her to finish chewing and swallowing before asking for another sample. She must have done this with 5 plus different flavors. Mind you, when I first walked in she did not wash her hands (like how they do at Subway or Golden Spoon, you actually see the employee wash their hands in front of you). I saw the sink, but no hand wash. I wouldn't mind the no hand wash if she had gloves, but to stick her bare hands in the tub of popcorn and munch on popcorn seemed inappropriate and unsanitary.
If you like Dole Whip, theirs tastes like the real thing but the amount you get for $2.50 is about 5 bites maybe 6? It's small.
