Watermelon and Popcorn Equals…

I haven’t given it too much thought, but if I had to list my top 10 favorite foods on the spot, popcorn would probably make the list. I grew up eating a lot of popcorn. Microwave popcorn while watching HBO movies. Smartfood popcorn with our Domino’s pizza. Popcorn at the movies.

I don’t think I’ve ever met a popcorn I didn’t like. These days, I still eat Smartfood popcorn and movie popcorn. And just about any Trader Joe’s popcorn. And Coastal Maine popcorn. In recent years, I discovered LesserEvil popcorn and have really enjoyed any flavor I’ve tried. Including…its watermelon hibiscus flavor and pumpkin spice flavor.

Skeptical? I was too. But I went for it because I love flavored popcorn (see Coastal Maine popcorn reference above). How bad could it be?

Not bad at all, she says! I loved the watermelon and hibiscus flavor off the bat. I can’t say the same for the pumpkin spice. I took a few bites and thought, “This is…kind of strange.” But I kept eating it anyway. Half a bag later, I was still thinking, “This is…kind of odd.” And yet. I finished the bag.

The final verdict is that I’m going to buy about six bags of the watermelon flavor if I can still find it, and I will probably buy a couple bags of pumpkin spice, too. They really do make pumpkin spice EVERYTHING, don’t they? What is the strangest pumpkin spice–flavored item you’ve ever tried?
