DD and I made popcorn this afternoon. I put some salt on it (more on mine than DD's)

DH reckoned we should put toffee sauce on it Shock.

AIBU to think that salt is the only topping for popcorn and toffee sauce in particular is just yuck yuck yuck?

No, quite right. Salt is correct.

WorraLiberty · 06/05/2012 15:36

I don't really like popcorn but at a push I'd eat it with icing sugar sprinkled on top.

gingerchick · 06/05/2012 15:36

no UABVU salt is [boak] toffee sauce is yum

cookielove · 06/05/2012 15:37

Oh yum toffee sauce!!

Your DP is correct

Sugar here. I'd rather eat my own arm than salted popcorn.

Yuck! Salty popcorn is horrible!

YANBU

Salt is the one and only topping for popcorn and anyone who tries to steal mine will lose a hand

M&S now do it in handy crisp size packets :o

Salted popcorn in a con by cinemas to make you buy more drinks. Sweet popcorn is the only way to go!

YANBU

Its salt and butter. You are totally right

TheCunningStunt · 06/05/2012 15:47

Sweet all the way...toffee is lovely too. Salt? Wrong

MayTheFarceBeWithYou · 06/05/2012 15:47

All cinema popcorn is a con

I go to morrisons - one bag of salt for me, one bag of sweet for DP and two small bottles of coke

Bargain price of £3.35 :o

Ps you need a big handbag for this plan to work

WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes · 06/05/2012 15:48

YANBU Salt and butter is best. The Tyrrells Sweet and Salty one is yum though.

FatherDougalMcGuire · 06/05/2012 15:49

Hmmm try the toffee sauce AND a sprinkling of Maldonado sea salt. Delish!

mythical · 06/05/2012 15:49

Salted/butter all the way! ( with chocolate buttons or maltesers if at the cinema!)
Can't stand sweet popcorn

TitsalinaBumSquash · 06/05/2012 15:49

We have sweet on the bottom of the bag, salty on top (because it's best, natch) then DP chucks a bag of Minstrels through it. Grin

FatherDougalMcGuire · 06/05/2012 15:50

Maldano sea salt??? I meant Maldon!!!

FatherDougalMcGuire · 06/05/2012 15:51

Oh tits, I used to have a bf who'd buy salted popcorn warm at the cinema and then chuck in a bag of m@ms, it's really tasty and the candy goes a little melty inside. Hmmmmm!

Badgerina · 06/05/2012 15:52

How about BOTH! It would be a bit like salted caramel Grin

greenandcabbagelooking · 06/05/2012 15:52

All popcorn is wrong. Except maybe toffee. But not toffee sauce, it would go all soggy, something like Butterkist.

AmberLeaf · 06/05/2012 15:54

Salty is yukkers.

AmberLeaf · 06/05/2012 15:55

...and yes you cant put toffee sauce on because the popcorn goes all soft and horrible, it doesnt turn out like butterkist!

littleducks · 06/05/2012 15:59

I like salty, dh likes toffee.

We used to have with hot sauce when I was a child, micro the popcorn, then micro the sauce, that was nice but I don't know what it was.

GingerWrath · 06/05/2012 16:03

Salt and butter! Or Tyrrell's jalapeño and sour cream, nom nom.

TidyDancer · 06/05/2012 16:11

YABmassivelyU! Salted popcorn is vom-inducing.

It should only be sugar or butter.
