Butterkist have released quite a few interesting limited editions in the past year, such as the summer Strawberries & Cream variety and even a Sea Salt & Balsamic Vinegar earlier in the year. Even though I enjoy flavoured popcorn, I haven't really been tempted into any of these limited edition flavours from Butterkist until I saw this Salted Caramel pack - this one was a MUST try!
The popcorn has the familiar Butterkist appearance, with a thick layer of caramel on many of the pieces. The caramel flavour is quite similar to their regular toffee variety but with a smoother and more buttery edge to it. The addition of the salt results in a lovely sweet and salty balance in the caramel that is extremely tasty. It's a bit like the Butterkist Sweet & Salty popcorn but with added caramel - so much sweeter but even more enjoyable!

Deleteone of my favourite memories from the first couple of family trips to the states when i was about 9/10 years old was a place called Old Town - they had a shop with all different kinds of flavoured pop corn....... i just googled it, looks like its still there!

i believe i was hoarding 'different' kinds of food then as i think i kept mine for ages! whilst my brother ate all his.........
Ah that's such a great memory! Flavoured popcorns have been around in the US for much longer.
DeleteAnd that's so funny, I was known for doing the same with my snacks compared to my brothers. I would still have most of my Easter eggs left by my birthday (in July). Unfortunately I'm not so good at hoarding snacks these days!
