It really is delicious!

> Has anyone ever tried grated parmesan cheese on popcorn? > It may sound strange but it taste very good, try it > instead of salt. Yum, yum! Also try: paprika Spike (a packaged spice and herb mixture) brewer's yeast (actually, I hate yeast on poopcorn, but I know several people who like it) just plain - no salt or anything If you pop your corn in oil, try frying some garlic or ginger in it before adding the corn. -- Ed Gould mt Xinu, 2910 Seventh St., Berkeley, CA 94710 USA {ucbvax,decvax}!mtxinu!ed +1 415 644 0146

I can imagine that this would be quite good -- now, if I can just get the theaters to do it!-) Of course, if you are trying to cut down on Sodium consumption, you have to keep in mind that Parmesan cheese is *very* salty. -- =Spencer ({ihnp4,decvax}!utah-cs!thomas, thomas@utah-cs.ARPA) "There are only the pursued, the pursuing, the busy, and the tired." - F.

Another interesting variation: Mix Granny Goose green onion dip mix with the butter before pouring it on. YUM! - though some are put off by the little green specs . . . -Bob Aren't

If you have a microwave oven, try puting hot sauce on the the popcorn
before popping it. Yum! It may work with other sauces too.

You also might try any of the flavored salts (garlic, onion) and peppers.
I have also used garlic and/or onion powder.

Sanders (N8EMR) > ihnp4!cbnap!gws Not that strange. When I make scrambled eggs, I always use parmesan cheese instead of salt.. My mixture is roughly 3 parts egg batter (for me, 3 eggs and about 3 T. of milk) and 1-2 parts cheese. Adds a nice tang, improves the texture, and eliminates the need for salt. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Why do most recordings of Beethoven's Ninth sound like MMOs with the Choral tenor part missing? ---- /\ \ --Nick "Coosh" Cuccia / \ \ --{...}!ucbvax!cuccia (USENET) / /\ \ --cuccia%ucbmiro@Berkeley (Arpanet) /___/ \___\ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I've tried lots of sprinklings, and liked most of them. My VERY favorite is to swipe the little cheese packets out of the macaroni and cheese boxes and sprinle that on the popcorn. I never cared much for those mixes anyway, and the macaroni can be used in salads, with butter and poppy sees, or even in REAL macaroni and cheese. I wrote a letter once to one of the companies (KRAFT, I believe) and suggested they package that stuff in shaker bottles with popcorn in mind. They even sent me a polite reply thanking me for my suggestion and said they'd pass on my suggestion (I assumed to marketing). I've yet to see it in the stores, however. If anyone knows of some such powdered cheese, I'd appreciate hearing about it. Rob Greenbank Burroughs, Boulder Colorado (decvax!ittvax!dcdwest!sdcsvax!bmcg!asgb!rob) (bmcg!asgb!rob@SDCSVAX.ARPA)
