Farmer Jon's large bags of popcorn

Was thinking of buying those really large bags of popcorn...but as always decided to read the reviews, and glad I did. I like good popcorn, and this seemed to be a good way to try this brand out....but it only had a 2.3 review. So will not order it. Do you read the reviews and does it make your purchase easier to place?

Supermarkets in my area will have the large bags of Farmer Johns popcorn from time to time.  I purchased the Natural flavor a few weeks ago and my family loved it.  Very good.  Of course, it was a much better price than QVC.

The best micro popcorn I have ever had is Kirkland MW movie theater butter. We buy the box that has 44 3.3 oz. bags. It is available at Costco. On another note we need to do a Costco run,but here in Mi we are expecting a big snow storm so I guess the Costco run will have to be delayed.

I bought a countertop popcorn popper.  You can get one for about $20.  Buy a bag of popcorn in grocery store for maybe $2.

You can pop bags of popcorn for far less money and control your toppings. 

When you purchase already popped popcorn most likely it has preservatives...you con't want that. 

Also check the reviews...they are not that good. 

This is just my opion...pop your own..taste is far better...cheaper...and you can control your toppings and no preservatives.

I live in Illinois, which is corn country!🤣🤣🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽

 

I buy local popcorn and pop my own.  Delicious and never stale.

Re: Farmer Jon's large bags of popcorn

I thought about buying it because I love popcorn. But there was no way to reseal the bags.  I would have to put a twist tie on it, but that is not really a big issue.  My son makes his own popcorn, so we may have to try that.  He thinks it is much better than microwave popcorn.
