Cheese popcorn is a fine, fine food. I will not entertain any arguments to the contrary.

Were I forced to choose one food to eat for an entire week (hey, you never know), it would most likely be cheese popcorn. Cheese popcorn is no rival to bacon, of course, but if I eat bacon for a week, well, that would be my last week. Cheese popcorn isn’t a health food, but it ain’t going to kill you either…

So certainally a food a noble as cheese popcorn would benefit from getting "kicked up a notch", as a famous toothpaste spokesman has been know to say?

The fine people at Jay’s added their Hot Stuff seasoning to their popular O-Ke-Doke Cheese Popcorn. What should be a match made in heaven is unfortunately almost inedible.

Why? It’s SWEET. Hot and sweet may work in Chinese food, but it sure doesn’t with cheese popcorn. It’s a real letdown. I actually threw away most of this bag, something I thought I’d never do with cheese popcorn.

When Donna Summer sang that she was "looking for some hot stuff", surely she wasn’t talking about this.
