Sour Gourmet Popcorn

One of the most popular snacks now comes with a sweet and sour twist! Combine freshly popped popcorn with fruity candy-coated flavors like sour watermelon or green apple to make pucker-worthy popcorn! Or get creative and mix it with any Signature Blends flavor. Try it with red cherry or blue raspberry for vibrant colors and vivid flavors. Control the intensity of the sour flavor by adding more or less Sour Attitude.
