This is my new thing: I’m a foodie, and I want to share my food finds with you!
Last week, I talked about Fiasco Gelato (even though it wasn’t on a Friday), and this week I want to share a little something about Garrett Popcorn.
Actually, Garrett Popcorn wouldn’t have been on my radar if it wasn’t for my sister and my mom. For the past few special occasions they’ve been sending me a huge tin of the Chicago Mix, and it is amazing.
Truth be told, I love any kind of pop corn and eat it all the time. I love that it’s relatively healthy, crunchy, and flavourful (even when it’s not flavoured). Of course, the cheese and caramel combo is definitely not healthy, but it is so delicious. I had never thought that I’d like a combo of cheese and caramel popcorn (I love those flavours separately), but actually they are pretty amazing. There’s a nice combination of salty and sweet going on in the tin, and none of the cheese flavour manages to get on the caramel which is important to me.
As far as gourmet popcorn goes, this is really good. You can tell that thoughtfulness went into the flavouring because the caramel has a bit of a burnt taste to it, which home-made caramel always has.
Garrett Popcorn is out of Chicago but they do take phone orders and ship to Canada. If you’re looking for a unique gift then this is the way to go. I certainly enjoyed receiving it.
