Snack Review: Jody’s Popcorn

No matter how much the stuff gets stuck between my teeth and sends me to the bathroom to brush or searching for a toothpick, I love popcorn. I’m especially a fan of flavored popcorn like cheese and caramel. Don’t misunderstand though, I still have a soft spot for the smothered-in-butter theater kind as well.

Opening the jar I was warmly greeted with the peanut butter Gods smiling upon me and saying, “Go ahead, get a spoon.” Either that or it was the voices in my head. I’m not too sure because they sound the same.
