Popcorn Factory {Sponsored Review} @popcornfactory

June 27, 2012 by Dawn McAlexander

Image Credit: Popcorn Factory

Who doesn’t like popcorn? My husband would definitely not fall into the “doesn’t like popcorn” family. If popcorn were a woman, he would leave me for it. So, you can imagine his pleasure when he realized that we were going to get to review Popcorn Factory products. I’ll give you one guess who the first person to tear into this box was!

The Popcorn Factory sent us the following products to sample…

First off…

…White Cheddar popcorn! Yum! We love cheese popcorn in our household but if cheese isn’t your thing, don’t worry. Popcorn Factory has tons of varieties of popcorn to choose from including Jalapeno, Cinnamon, Cracked Pepper and Sea Salt and many more. Β What I really liked about it was, not only does the popcorn come in the plastic container that you see, inside of that container is a plastic baggy holding the popcorn so that your popcorn stays fresher, longer. We received these items a little over a week ago…we are still working on the White Cheddar Popcorn and it is still as fresh as when we received it – which was REALLY fresh, by the way! Who wants stale popcorn? Gross!

Next we have the Garden Buzz Deluxe Sampler.Β This variety box contained caramel popcorn, cheese popcorn, white cheddar popcorn, caramels, rainbow pretzels, sour candies {and those sour candies are SOUR – YUM!} and honey roasted peanuts. Everything in this sampler was {and still is} really good! I really really really liked the peanuts and I am so not a peanut fan, for the most part, so that says a lot.

Look at the beautiful sampler tin! This will be great to put cookies in later, or I am thinking that I might use it for stationary. πŸ™‚

And finally, aΒ popcorn bowl with snacks. This was my favorite. It came loaded with caramel popcorn, cheese popcorn {2 varieties}, butter popcorn, Jelly Belly Jelly Beans {my personal favorite – ironically, I love the popcorn flavored ones most, haha}, chocolate chip cookies, individual chocolates and licorice. My husband said, “I freaking loved the chocolate chip cookies. They were awesome!” He also said that he really loved the caramel popcorn. That is a surprise because he generally doesn’t like caramel popcorn at all. All of these items were individually wrapped and my husband was able to take them with his lunch to work {as was also the case with much of the items in the sampler}.

As a bonus, all of the goodies came in a nice enamelware bowl that you can save and use over and over again. This should really please those that are trying to be more green and also those who just like really cool dishes and gifts that are practical.

Buy It!Β 

You can buy all of these products as well as many, many more but checking out Popcorn Factory’s website.Β Might I recommend checking out some of their summer and 4th of July selection of goodies!

Win It!

One lucky Cheap Is The *New* Classy reader will win the Patriotic 2 gallon 3 Flavored Tin {ARV $29.99}!Β You know you need this for all of your 4th of July festivities! But you can’t win it if you don’t enter! Click HERE to enter!

      My husband says the cookies are VERY yummy! Unfortunately he snarfed them all down before I got any. I returned the favor with the Jelly Beans, though! Hahaha!

    I’d love to try the White Cheddar! The the Garden Buzz Deluxe Sampler is very pretty. I like the way all the products are packaged…looks like it would arrive to the recipient in nice condition.
    Thanks for the review!

    • Dawn says

      June 28, 2012 at 12:12 pm

      They did arrive very well packaged with no dents or dings on either the package or any of the contents. πŸ™‚

    What a great sampler they sent you! You and your family are lucky to have such great products to sample and review here. I’m glad it didn’t sound as if their popcorn has an aftertaste- I’ve had some butter flavored popcorn that just has a nasty aftertaste to it. I LOVE white cheddar popcorn, and your review of how good it was and how it was still fresh after a week makes me very anxious to try it- whether I win or not.

    • Dawn says

      June 28, 2012 at 12:18 pm

      I know! I was very pleased. πŸ™‚ Oh, and I definitely didn’t experience any gross aftertaste. I hate that when that happens! Yuck!

    i am impressed that the popcorn was so fresh. that usually is not the case with packaged stuff.

    • Dawn says

      June 28, 2012 at 9:09 pm

      You are right about that! ESPECIALLY bagged popcorn. It is usually stale, or it goes stale within a day or two of opening it. This was a most welcome change!

    I’m partial to cheese popcorn also but butter and caramel are some of my favorites also.

  20. krystle says

    White cheddar looks delicious. I’ve tried several of their items and never been disappointed!

    I love the reusablity of the packaging and After going to the site I love the number of flavors and variety of items offered. I love that you stated that everything is wrapped and stays fresh for weeks. Being single this is very important to me. I am with you I thing I would like the caramel flavor best.

  22. Ellen Levickis says

    I appreciate the great details you provided and the added bonus of pics of what the sets looked like before opening.

    That Garden Buzz Sampler sounds amazing! I love the variety in it! The tin is super cute too. I think this would be a great gift to give a hostess.

    I remember getting those popcorn tins when I was younger-They were always so fun to eat and my sister and I would fight over the caramel. LOL

    Although I must say the white cheddar sounds amazing!

    I think everything looks yummers! And I am a big fan of keeping tins to reuse! I put gifts in them, use them for my sewing supplies, stationary and some of my “fun” jewelry!
