Although I do like popcorn I do not like it to be too spicy. However, my sons and families would probably love this recipe.
We have been watching more TV and eating more popcorn so it is nice to have some variety in the spices. This one does look on the spicy side and I think my husband will be a fan.
This sounds good. I like popcorn of all flavors. Sweet and spicy would be different. I also like how the recipe says to spray because that makes a world of difference so the flavorings don’t just it at th bottom.
Sweet and Spicy Popcorn Seasoning Mix Recipe sounds so tasty and terrific to try. My daughter has been making lots of homemade popcorn since we are home!
Very interesting flavors in this popcorn seasoning. I’m a plain with butter and salt kind of gal.
This is such a great idea. I am more a sweet lover but I really think we both would love this!
I feel so stupid! I have been buying popcorn spices for my mother now I know how to make a popcorn seasoning for her. This one she will really like. I save glass spice bottles for my crafting and this would work perfect for this.
We make our own popcorn seasonings and keep them in shaker bottles. I like sweet…hubby goes between salty and spicy and the kidlets like weird flavors and sometimes we’ll add coloring to theirs (natural colorings).
I do like sweet and salty snacks. I’ve never tried making sweet and salty popcorn, but it looks good.
