PopcornHow do you get the sticky syrup to stick.I prefer salt, easy but smallest child wants sugar. This sounds familiar, I will, in the meantime, do a search. Is there anythin new on Downsizer?

Melt a little butter with a little sugar and a little syrup until not quite cooked enough to turn to toffee, then pour it over the popcorn.... and stir very very well......mmmmm
Or a quick way, melt butter and pour onto popcorn, mix in well, then sprinkle with castor sugar Not that I do this often you understand 
|

once you pour the syrup over it pop in a single layer on a baking sheet into a fairly hot oven for a couple of mins, take it out and let it cool a bit before tucking in.
Im told this works but I dont really like popcorn so cannot say for sure. |

Salty popcorn?  Yuk!
Sounds like a Marmite debate to me 
A. |
||||||
| Pilsbury |
Love it end of debate |
||||||
| sean |
Heretic. Burn him. |
||||||
| Pilsbury |
what about marmite popcorn???? I think i might have an evening snack to make later | ||||||
| judith |
How about Marmite on your popcorn? It works for Twiglets.
Great minds, Pilsbury! |
||||||
| Barefoot Andrew |
Hmm, not a good start to my revolt.
A. |
||||||
| Cathryn |
We finished it while waiting for replies. However tomorrow we will try the Pilsbury way... 
Salty is still the best. We might need to vote... |
||||||
| Rob R |
Marmite? Mar-mite!? Are you sick? even thinking such a thing. 
Salty is still the best. |
||||||
| wellington womble |
I like both, depending on what mood I'm in. I demand an option! 
|
||||||
| Penny |
|
||||||
| Jamanda |
Darn it. I'd have voted for that. I went for sweet as it was. | ||||||
| wellington womble |
It wasn't just me, anyway! |
||||||
| Fee |
Salty, definitely salty, though chilli is my favourite. Popped in some chilli oil instead of plain, yummmm. Then salt added of course
Never tried marmite, that sounds good! |
||||||
| Rob R |
As a way of stopping anyone with taste pinching your popcorn? |
||||||
| Fee |
But we all know that you're just weird not to love marmite
|
||||||
| Rob R |
Wierd was the word that sprang to mind for me too 
Does happytechie share your disgusting vice? |
||||||
| Fee |
He shares the true love of marmite, yes. In fact, I think he puts more on his toast than I do, and that's saying something! He says that he doesn't mind people not liking it, means there's more in the World for "meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee".

What about honey?
I like it sweet but def not sugar, has to be honey.
|
||||||
| Rob R |
I'll let him off, by that same token the more he eats the less of the stuff there is in the world.
|
||||||
| Cathryn |
And I like the idea of a poll that alters all the time.
|
||||||
| sean |
Nobody's added a stoat-related option yet. Slackers. | ||||||
| Penny |
|
||||||
| Rob R |
Option 3 & option 7 are the same. 
|
||||||
| Nanny |
what is it about the uk that they have to put strange things on so many normal foods
marmite does not go on popcorn honey does not go on popcorn the only way a sugar syrup goes on popcorn is when it is cracker jack and comes in a box with peanuts and a prize in every pack- as every american kid certainly used to know normal popcorn is with salt and butter.....there is no other way any thing else is not to be thought of chili popcorn..............my god what has the world come to |
||||||
| Fee |
Don't knock it till you've tried it!
But then I do like chilli most things...apart from fingers, but that's another story
|
||||||
| sean |
You and Mary-Jane should have a chat some time. | ||||||
| happytechie |
Excellent, an agreement has been reached, we are all happy with our own beliefs and feelings and are willing to accept other's views
Now can this be an end of this pointless anti marmite nonsense and we can all get on with our happy marmite filled lives
|
||||||
| Fee |
We already have
|
||||||
| Frewen |
Marmite
|
||||||
| Penny |
Don't be daft man, we're only on page 3
|
||||||
| happytechie |
Can I point out some missing options for the poll then....
chilli <- it might be better than marmite |
||||||
| Rob R |
You had me until the last four words
|
||||||
| happytechie |
Let's agree to respect each others views, no matter how wrong yours may be
|
||||||
| Rob R |
Hey everyone has a flaw, yours may be liking marmite, mine's liking people who like marmite
|
||||||
| Slim |
why marmite? Why not just add some dried brewer's yeast? (leftover from a large brewer, not yet to be brewed with) YUMMMM
The only time sweetness should go towards popcorn is when making popcorn balls. |
||||||
| Nick |
No options for bacon, or garlic?
Tsk. |
||||||
| JB |
Or even an option for popcorn is a vile abomination that should not be granted the right to exist. | ||||||

I'll join your revolt! Sweet popcorn is the only way! Although I get the urge on occassion to try marmite - I haven't had it since I was wee. Not sure it'd agree with the morning sickness though 
|
||||||
| Pilsbury |
just to throw a spanner in the work I will offer a free pack of Marmite mushroom munchies to anyone brave enough to pm me for one, what are they I hear you ask, well you will just have to pm me and find out.
I warn you though they taste of marmite.

There's no option "I can't stand the filthy stuff" | ||||||
| Cathryn |
*sigh* It's work, work, work when you are a mod you know.
|
||||||
| Fee |
Can I change my vote from salty to chilli please?
|
||||||
| tahir |
My favourite is home made (in a pan) in sunflower oil, no seasoning required | ||||||
| vegplot |
Your tireless work is appreciated. I have voted, bet you can't guess. |
||||||
| Barefoot Andrew |
