this took forever to reach hard ball stage. the flavor was pretty good but after a few hours it wasnt so good. very sticky, a bit tangy and a different way of making popcorn for sure. i love popcorn so i still loved it. after a bit though it was too sweet so i sprinkles some salt over the whole thing and that was good.

I've made this twice now. The first time I had to emergency sub strawberry yogurt and it was OK, but wanted to try it again with plain. Both times this came out like slightly tangy caramel corn, but sticky like you'd use to make popcorn balls. The mixture appeared to burn slightly near 250 degrees, but didn't taste yukky, so I went ahead and used it. This was too sticky for my tastes, but my three kids absolutely inhaled it and said it was the best ever. My four year-old said he LOVED it, and as far as I know, he has never LOVED anything LOL! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
