Snappy White Popcorn, 4 Pounds

I have tried many brands of popcorn, and Snappy is the best by far! I buy the yellow kernels, and they pop up fast and leave very few, if any, "old maids." The popped corn is tender and delicious. Thank you Snappy!

As with the Snappy Yellow, after wandering through as many unpopped popcorn varieties as Amazon sells, am seriously wondering if my journey has pretty much ended with Snappy. Just inhaled a 3 quart bowl of Snappy White, which IMO makes the best white cheddar (butter/margarine and Hoosier Hill White Cheddar powder) popcorn I have ever had. Rarely give 5 stars to unpopped popcorn, but like the yellow, has everything I was looking for - reasonable size puffs (these are large tho not as big as Pop Secret say but bigger than heirloom popcorn), freshness, a touch of actual corn flavor, pops very well, and melting tenderness. I pop in peanut oil (high smoke point) stovetop. Once in a while coconut oil. Lazily put layer of oil in pot to cover pot bottom, crank heat, add 2 kernels until they pop, add 1/2 cup corn, turn heat down slightly, shake once in a while, take pot off when popping slows, add melted butter and toppings and inhale. Takes maybe 4 minutes? Sometimes add teaspoon of white sugar with popcorn for a vague kettle corn effect. Overall, Snappy white is a very tender popcorn, tho it wouldn't be my go-to for making candy corn, due to the tenderness. If I ate popcorn plain I would pick this one. If I ran a bar, either Snappy yellow or white would be what I put out in bowls. Don't have a hull problem but hulls stick to side of pot, mostly. Reasonable number of unpopped kernels. I suppose I could try other varieties on my journey, but why LOL. Tho can't comment on microwave or air pop - I always use oil. Lots of good popcorn out there - mostly IMO 4 star, but Snappy has been one of the rare 5 star for me. (t least this year, as I know huge number of variables with popcorn).

Don't pay any attention to the negative reviews. This popcorn is very good quality. This company was started in 1940 and is one of the biggest popcorn company's still in business. I've read some of the comments of people claiming they found"rocks" or "dirt" in their popcorn which seems a little suspicious to me considering how big the company is and how long they've been in business. Idk, maybe it was a fluke? All I know is that my jar was factory sealed in a clean container and it was all kernels. As far as the people claiming it isn't good tasting? Well, maybe they got a bad batch because mine tastes awesome. What I can tell you is this. It usually comes down to how you make it, and If you follow my directions below, you will be able to make some of the best tasting popcorn you've ever had in your entire life. There is a technique to making great tasting popcorn and unless you do it correctly, you will be disappointed with the results. First off, forget about using an air popper. It will likely turn out chewy. The best way to make it is on the stove the old fashioned way. Now, If you don't already own a Whirley-pop, then go buy one because they're dirt cheap (no pun intended) and the best. Until then, get yourself a decent medium or large sized pot with a lid. Secondly, buy a jar of organic coconut oil as it's by far the best oil you can use for making popcorn. It's not only healthier for you, but also gives the popcorn a much better taste. Thirdly, order from Amazon a box of Gold Medal Flavacol popcorn salt, and if you wish to make movie style popcorn you can also buy "Snappy butter burst oil." And lastly, if you choose not to use the butter burst, you can substitute it with some non-salted real butter ( butter burst is better though). Now, you ready for this? Okay, first take three level tbsp of coconut oil and place it in the pot and set heat to the medium setting. While waiting for your oil to heat up, take the partial stick of butter (or butter burst) and heat it in a mug in the microwave till it's melted or warm and set it aside. By now your oil should be fully heated so go ahead and throw in a couple of kernels and wait till they pop. Once they pop, pour in 1/2 cup of Snappy kernels along with one level 1/2 tsp of the Flavacol. Leave the lid off for now (the less steam the better) and slowly slide the pot back and forth on the stove so the kernels don't sit (very important) and once you see the kernels start popping, quickly place the lid on the pot and hold lid 1" ajar so the majority of the steam can easily vent (also very important). While holding lid, continue shifting the pot slowly from side to side the entire time until you hear the popping slow to about one or two pops every couple seconds and immediately pull it off the stove and pour the popcorn into your bowl, but only pour it to the halfway mark. Now take the melted butter (or butter burst) and drizzle half of it over the first half of your popcorn. After that, pour the rest of the popcorn into the bowl and pour the second half on top of it. If you like, you can always sprinkle a little Flavacol onto your popcorn and toss it, but be careful not to over salt it as it will more easily stick to buttered popcorn. Now sit back relax and enjoy some popcorn that's sure to raise some eyebrows.

I purchased the white corn first and like it a lot. I finished it pretty quickly and decided to order another. I got the yellow kernels and the white is DEFINITELY BETTER. The white popcorn was light and crisp, not chewy. The hull was minimal. It was very delicate and fragrant and a great popcorn flavor. The yellow popcorn I was hoping to be the same, just a stronger corn flavor, but was disappointing. The popcorn doesn’t have much flavor. There isn’t any popcorn smell. The white one smells delicious and everyone comes from their rooms to the kitchen to have some. The popcorn itself isn’t as crisp or light and is more chewy. It hardly has any flavor. It lacks all of the things that make popcorn good. Not worth eating. I’m going to store and get the white ones again instead.

Sooooo good and arrived before christmas when it said it would after. That's what I wanted it for!

This product is great! I've always tried to buy white popcorn and was thrilled when I found this on Amazon. Pops great---popping all kernels, tastes great. No worries as you already know taste will be good to serve your guests!

Pleasantly surprised by the taste texture & quality for the price. I have had several types of yellow popcorn in bulk previously that never were quite right. I will be buying this from now on.

The flavor is good but there always seems to have a lot of un-popped kernels

Great taste. it has a slight nutty tasty to it. Kernels all pop pretty well. very few unpoped kernels. Kernels are more like movie still not the brain style. overall the best kernels I have ever used.

Pops great, tastes delicious

tasty done in coconut oil on the stove the old fashion way aslo bought one and shipped to my daughter the grandkids love it

Truth is this is a good popcorn. With coconut oil they all pop and have a great taste. There's some hull left but less than any other popcorn brand I tried.

Taste great especially with butter + flavacol. Great product I always buy this one.
