I bought these to go with a popcorn machine booth at my office for Halloween. I sold bags of freshly popped popcorn as fundraiser at work, with these as optional flavors to try. It was raging success. So much so that people asked me where they could get these. The most popular flavor by far was White Cheddar. I ran the machine daily for two weeks and just about ran out of the White Cheddar. For a flavor breakdown here you go:Butter - not terribly buttery, but it's a powder - what can you expect?Nacho cheese - ok, kinda tangy for a cheese flavor.Jalapeno cheese - woah that has a kick! But very tasty!Buffalo wing - spicy-ish. More Vinegary than spicy.Ranch - fairly salty, very much as expected. Kind of comes off as sour cream and onion potato chip flavor.Parmesan Garlic - very good. Not too garlicky.Kettle corn - what can I say? Sweet. People seemed to like it, but I am not a kettle corn fan, so I didn't try that one.Caramel corn - not bad! Could have been stronger, but the flavor was good. Maybe I just didn't use enough.White Cheddar - run away favorite among my coworkers. Not too sharp, not too salty, pretty darn good!Bacon Cheddar -- I saved my favorite for last. I didn't expect to like a fake bacon anything (gimme the real stuff!) but this surprised me. I put it with a little butter/oil topping and loved it. (Even better with black truffle oil - OMG!!). Does NOT taste like bacon. Mostly tastes like a smoky cheese - like smoked gouda or something. VERY tasty to me, especially with the black truffle oil! If crazy artisan hipster flavor combo popcorn is your thing, you might like this as much as I did!Overall it was a hit! My coworkers loved this addition to my popcorn stand. Very few calories, not much salt in these, nor fat or sugar. My co-workers in weight watchers really appreciated that fact. I will definitely enjoy using these at home now that the popcorn machine has to go back to its owner.
