Garry Poppins is gourmet Popcorn made here in Chicago with the best ingredients around.
Oooo, I love popcorn! I usually get it out of microwave bags though.
You have never had popcorn this good. Gary Poppins is some of the best popped corn we’ve had, and thankfully it’s made here – so we don’t have to go far to get out fix. Great popcorn without the fear of ‘popcorn lung.’ There is something about the kettle corn that makes us reach the bottom of the bag before we know it. The cheese isn’t heavy or too light, it’s the perfect coating over each popped kernel. We love them all!
Who is this popcorn alchemist?
Gary, a man who has loved popcorn all his life; even going to the movie theater only to focus on the popcorn, without caring much about the movie! His father was a baker and influenced him to go to culinary school – and even on to the Culinary Institute of America to hone his taste buds. After school he wanted to explore his love of popcorn with his new knowledge of food. Fighting through the torrents of seeds, cooking methods, and ingredients he came upon what is Gary Poppins.
Gourmet popcorn? This has to only be for dinner parties…
We love to snack on Gary Poppins any time. It’s sweet, crunchy, buttery, everything you could want from a snack. Though, it is the perfect fancy morsel to put out for any event. That is the best part about gourmet popcorn; it can dress up or down, from tuxes to sweatpants it is always fits in.
