      Good one. Popcorn is embedded in every kid's life, I guess. My kids never watch a movie without popcorn. And I make it at home as well.

      I often make them at home, instead of butter, i have used coconut oil for flavor. With butter, it should be rich and buttery !!! Yummy!!!

      The most comforting snack is popcorn, for me it brings back sweet childhood memories. During the holidays my cousins would come down to our place for holidays and my mum would pop popcorn and serve it to us in paper cones.
