| - Let me preface this by saying I am not a big popcorn fan . . . my husband is. Having about an hour to kill between appointments, I decided to pop into My Popcorn Kitchen to pick up some for him. "Some" is a relative term . . . and as I perused the popcorn variety menu, I was overwhelmed. Over 60 flavors . . . remember, I am not a popcorn fan, but I wanted to try them all! Not just the individual tastes, but combinations of some of those 60 flavors, too! Without being too piggish, I tried just a few samples: pizza, ranch. loaded baked potato, salted caramel, Scottsdale Blend (white cheddar and caramel mixed), vanilla and cinnamon toast. I ended up buying a small bag of each, two to give to friends, and the rest for my charming husband.
The pizza tastes just like pizza -- a great way to have that scrumptious taste without all the fat and calories! I loved the Loaded Baked Potato more than the real thing! The salted caramel was the kind of savory sweet that I crave every night after dinner. And the vanilla and cinnamon toast were light and not too overly sweet, perfectly addicting.
This particular afternoon, they had bag on display of caramel and green apple. It was so pretty just sitting there, I was almost tempted to buy it without even trying it! This is a fantastic place to buy gifts for friends or clients. They have all the fixings to make the perfect box, bag or tin. On the other hand, it could be fun to take your kids there, pick up some mini bags of various flavors and colors and string some holiday popcorn for your tree!
The two women who were working the front of the store were so friendly and accommodating! They encouraged tastings and offered up their opinions when asked. I know today was a first of many trips to My Popcorn Kitchen. I might just be a popcorn fan after all!
