Yes, I like these, too.

Oke-doke cheese flavored is my favorite. It's not as good as it used to be though. The original company was sold several years ago. The recipe changed slightly, but it's still the best cheese flavored popcorn ever. I only indulge once or twice a year.

I really like Skinny Pop and a huge bag is only about $4 at Sam's Club.

I've tried the Aldi's lightly salted. It wasn't quite as good as Skinny Pop and the savings wasn't that great compared to the bag at Sam's Club.

Most of the time I pop corn in an air popper. I still have the bag I bought last year from my nephew/cub scout.

I once had a Popcorn cookbook and I was amazed at all the dishes you can make with popcorn, even meals, desserts.

I like Newman's Own organic pop corn. For the microwave.

And a blue bag sold at Target (already popped) of caramel and cheddar flavored.

I ended up buying a bag of the Popcorn Indian kettle corn yesterday and had some. I forgot how good it is.

Default Popcorn won't pop

I have popped popcorn all my life and never had problems. Now when I pop a batch the kernels dont pop all the way leaving a hard half popped kernels. I thought it was a bad batch of kernels so l bought another bag and the same things happens. I do it Stove top as always. Anyone else having this problem?

I use the store brand, but follow this method that has never failed me: Put about a tablespoon of oil in the bottom of your covered pot, and add about 5-6 kernels. When they pop, remove the pot from the heat, add the rest of the kernels, swish a bit to coat with oil, and wait 30 seconds before putting it back on the flame. They all pop.
