The taste of this popcorn is very yummy with the cheese and the garlic butter. It's a great way to season plain popcorn. Thanks rickoholic :) Made for PAC Fall 2012

The best popcorn! This has so much great flavour that in order not to waste one bit, I sieved the dregs in the bottom of the bowl to discard the unpoped kernels, and then added it to a fresh batch of this recipe's cheese and herbs to use in making croutons. Loved this popcorn. The recipe says it serve 4, but I ate it all myself!
