Now, I’m not a cheese kind of person. I could totally live my entire life without eating any, and I’m even known to pull the cheese off my pizza (sorry!). So I wasn’t expecting this popcorn to be anything special.
Ok, ok. Smoked Gouda. Probably tastes like the rest of the popcorn I had in the past. I thought.
But I was so wrong.
This popcorn, is ah-mazing.
Sure, it looks like your average, store bought popcorn. But it wasn’t.
It was light, and crunchy, and fluffy popcorn. Fluffy might be a weird adjective to describe popcorn, mostly because I immediately asociate fluffy with pillows, but it was fluffy. And yummy.
It was cheesy, light and had just a wee bit of heat/spice to it. There was almost a (get ready for it) BACON flavor to it. I haven’t eaten bacon in years, but bacon is goood. Turkey bacon always hit the spot for me, and this popcorn had flavors vvery similar to bacon. Perhaps it was the “smoked” aspect of the popcorn. Regardless, I’m going to roll with it.
It was also a bit salty, but in a good way, and some other deeper flavors going on. I really, really liked this popcorn. And if I see it in the stores, I’m definitely buying it again. Minus the fact I already demolished the bad. So much for sharing.
4 1/2 stars. I may be becoming a cheese convert. Also loving that it’s gluten free, all natural, and has some healthy and filling fiber : )
What about YOU- what’s your favorite type of cheese? If I had to pick, parmesan all the way!
I received this bag of popcorn to try for free from the company. Regardless, my opinions are unaffected and genuine.
Mozzarella! All day every day!
I’ve been known to pull the cheese off my pizza too!
…Because it’s the only part I end up eating >:)
hahahah. we’d be great going out to lunch together then! you can have the cheese, Ill have the saucy bread!!
I’m pretty much a cheese snob. I love brie melted on anything, and smoked gouda is great. Love the umami and sweet taste of asiago or parmesan, and also can’t get enough of the grassy sweetness and creamy taste of bucheron or chevre.
I’ve been grating fresh asiago for popcorn for a few years now and it’s money.
ok…that actually sounds amazing. im normally a sweet rather than savory kind of girl, but grated fresh cheese over popcorn sounds deliish! 🙂
Try with dried basil and sun dried tomatoes. Also, you will like corn nuts. Buy the kind in the store first, than make your own 🙂
hahah ok, you got ittt 🙂
That popcorn sounds absolutely freaking fantastic! Mail me some? 😉 Kidding! But yuuuuum! Smokiness is always a good thing!
ahh, it WAS good! Girl, if I found some and could mail it to you, I would!!
These look delish! Can’t wait to see if king soopers has em!
This looks pretty damn amazing. I’ve always said that popcorn was one of the greatest snacks ever: low calorie, high fiber, natural goodness. Gouda cheese is something I’ve always been fond of as well. I gotta keep my eye out for these!
