Popcorn Gift Basket

Snacks are part of our daily eating routine. Snacks get us through scary movies, sleepovers, and a night with friends. Why, some of the most memorable occasions center on snacks. Ever watch the Super Bowl or the NBA finals without snacks?

Some of us like snacks more than others. For this person, popcorn may be their favorite snack of all time. Popcorn is one snack that can be both fattening and healthy. Filling a basket with popcorn is fun for you and the recipient.

Popcorn doesn’t just come with butter anymore. Over the years, popcorn has undergone a transformation. Popcorn connoisseurs can choose from different colors and flavors. For Fourth of July, I’ve seen red, white, and blue popcorn. For Saint Patrick’s Day, green, and for Valentine’s Day, red popcorn is popular.

Along with the color changes are the flavors. Caramel popcorn was popular for Cracker Jacks. Popcorn lovers can have sticky caramel popcorn balls, cheddar cheese popcorn, white cheddar popcorn, butter, garlic, and any number of other flavors. They can even eat chocolate popcorn.

One problem with popcorn is that it gets in between your teeth. A new hull-less type of popcorn has been developed to eliminate the habit of kernels getting stuck between the teeth and causing pain. Hull-less popcorn comes in a variety of flavors as well.

For the weight conscious popcorn eater, there are fat free and 98 percent fat free popcorn varieties. Simply pop a bag in the microwave oven and you can have a super snack. To enjoy some other flavors for this popcorn, you can purchase popcorn topper flavors. They can be sprinkled on the popcorn to season the entire bag with hot, garlic, butter, or cheese flavor.

Does the popcorn have a favorite television, movie, or sports personality? Popcorn can be purchased in decorative tins displaying the pictures of sports stars and actors. Present different flavors of popcorn in these tins which can be used later for storing other items.

Decorate the gift basket with pictures of puffed corn all around. Get nostalgic with a few pans of Jiffy Pop popcorn. That’s the kind that cooks up on the stove.

Popcorn lovers have a greater selection that they had ten years ago. Whether they are a health nut or a true snack lover, there is a popcorn brand for everyone.
