    Well here’s the real secret ingredients that theaters use:
    - Refined coconut oil that has been dyed yellow with beta carotene. This makes the popcorn look buttery.
    - Flavacol popcorn seasoning. It is mostly super fine salt like you made, but also has some extra seasoning to give the popcorn a super buttery flavor.
    I make it at home and it tastes identical. The only difference is that it isn’t a yellow because I don’t use coconut oil that has been colored. Just melt the coconut oil and add the kernels + Flavacol at the same time. You want to make sure that you stir it immediately to get the Flavacol evenly mixed into the oil. As it pops, it gets seasoned. You just need to keep it moving as it pops. Turns out great!

    Here in Australia, one of the cinema chains uses a very processed salt called 'butter salt' and it's super fine like this example. They also use a very yellow palm oil (no idea if it's ethically sourced, probs not 🙃) that is the main factor in the colour and flavour of the popcorn (an ex-cinema worker).

    I've worked at two movie theaters and if you want real movie theater popcorn go to amazon and buy the carton of "flavacol" its the popcorn season and its $7. while you're on amazon buy coconut oil thats flavored butter, because the "butter" at movie theaters is really just coconut oil. so when you cook it on your stove put the oil (be generous cause theaters use a lot of oil) and maybe a tablespoon or two of the popcorn salt and let it cook in the oil and salt. you're welcome :)

    Well apparently it's something else like there butter and if im remembering correctly a type of powder but it wasn't salt. It made taste so distinctive and better tasting then the popcorn you get from the store I wish I can know what it is but at the same time sometimes it's better to not know things sense its a secret and that's what makes taste good for a example the French fries. From McDonald's there distinctive and it doesn't taste like anything else that you get from the store or any other locations. And that what it makes you keep on wondering and guessing what do they add to the food to make taste delicious.

    I managed a movie theater for 5 years so I can tell you the REAL secret to that “movie theater taste”. It has absolutely nothing to do with the salt. The main thing you HAVE to have is canola oil. You must pop it in canola oil, and if you REALLY really want it to taste exactly like the movies. You add in a special seasoning powder called Flavacol BEFORE it starts popping. So in this order; add seed, oil, seasoning, and then apply heat

One day he brought in his platform (theater type) popper because someone had to fix it. Then he popped us amazing theater/carnival popcorn. I asked him what he used, and he actually gave me one of the packs. Simply popcorn and the special oil. I saved it until I popped it in my West Bend Stir Crazy electric popper - NOT THE SAME. Something about the heat generated and the popping pan which makes it good - not just the ingredients. I still make great popcorn, but not like the theater in spite of having the ingredients.

    I love that I came across your video, you do what your heart desires bub and don’t be embarrassed because someone else looks at your opinion wrong your certificates are just paper granted you worked hard for them as you was explaining but your life is only “once” When you were talking about how to do right with meditation it works and once I can travel the world and seeing gods creation it’s going to be so beautiful; Go see what you can see and don’t worry about a set time; god bless you and your little family🙂🌄💜🙏

    Wait… you were watching Quiet place 2 and all you could think about was popcorn? Was the movie that bad? And why did your popcorn turn black??
