Advantages: Tasty and great to share

Disadvantages: very sticky!

I've never really been the biggest fan of popcorn. Even at the cinema, I'd always rather go for some sweets over the oddly shaped puff balls that everyone else was eating. No matter whether it was salted or sweet, it always tasted bland, and the way the corn husks got stuck in your teeth did my head in.

But then I discovered Butterkist's Toffee Popcorn, and I was smitten. Unlike regular popcorn, Butterkist's has been coated in a crunchy toffee coating, that acts like a hard shell, and makes the popcorn more like a sweet. The toffee is really tasty, and not overly sweet, but with that kind of flavour that will have you stuffing more and more into your face!

This addictiveness may be one of its downfalls though, as between you and some friends you can get through a bag in no time. And of course, if you have too much, you can end up making yourself feel sick!

It is a great snack to share though. We regularly have Guitar Hero nights, and watch a lot of movies with friends, and Butterkist's popcorn is always one of the nibbles we have on the table. As long as hands are wiped before going back to the instruments at least! The toffee popcorn can get pretty sticky on your hands, so you will find yourself brushing your hands together to get the stickiness off.

The popcorn is not massively high in calories either, and as a snack for kids, there are small lunch box sized packets available in multipacks.

All in all, a great treat, especially when watching a movie with friends!

Summary: A perfect snack to have while watching a movie, to share with friends!
