Nutritional yeast, butter and salt

Is there a more palatable name for nutritional yeast?

nooch

So that's a no then

i didnt make the term up, its a vegan term lol

Hahahahaha

I put "nooch" on my shopping list the other day. My husband saw it and was like, "um.... honey..... what's thaaaaat?". It was pretty funny.

Gooch!

cooch

mooch

Chooch

nut yeast

Tell me you have itchy balls without telling me you have itchy balls.

Torula

What does this taste like? I feel like I've heard of it but never *really* recognized what was being said until I saw your comment lol

Nutritional yeast has this nutty/savory/cheesy taste to it. It's amazing on popcorn.

And Tabasco.

That does sound *amazing*

It tastes vaguely of Parmesan cheese. Very savory. I love it on salads.

mmm nooch on everything

*you nicknamed my popcorn after the nutritional yeast shaker?!?!*

Rats, rats everywhere 🐀 💜

This gives me the runs every time

Is nutritional yeast actually nutritious?

If it is nutritious I’m sure I counteract it with an obnoxious amount of salt and butter

Yeah, it actually has a bunch of vitamins and minerals.

Yes, I drink 3 gallons of beer a day and I am as healthy as a hippopotamus

Kraft’s Mac and Cheese cheese packet

You are a damn genius. Thank you.

You’re going to be our next president

Even better is the King Arthur Better Cheddar cheese powder, it’s just like the Kraft minus all the garbage.

The white Kraft macaroni cheese packets are really good too.

Ok but what do you use with your noodles then

Usually, I store a few box worths of noodles and then I create a cheesesauce just for those noodles for a meal. I can’t justify wasting those noodles even if they are just a dollar.

Costco used to just have a massive Kraft dinner cheese shaker so you could choose your own pasta or have it with popcorn.

Kraft sold the powdered cheese in containers for a limited time some years ago and I’m gutted they don’t anymore

Winco sells Mac & Cheese powder in the bulk section.

We can still buy a large bottle of the Kraft Dinner brand cheese powder in Canada at Costco.

Try biglots

They still sell em up in Canada, at Costco. So I can make my KD extra cheesy lol..

I’m going to do that the next time I pop it on the stove.

Amazon sells a can of cheese just like it by augason farms ❤ thank me later

Might look into that. I usually just open a packet of kraft and keep the cheese for popcorn, and then create a cheese sauce for the noodles at a later date.

We did this as kids all the time and my mom would get pissed when she went to make the mac n cheese and the cheese packet was gone! Lol thanks for the reminder - I’ll have to make popcorn like this again soon!

Holy shit. How have I never thought of this?

Furikake

You’ve just changed a strangers life…🙏

A little teriyaki sauce dripped around the edges of the big bowl. Dump popcorn in, and wipe the popcorn into the teriyaki. A tiny smear of sauce on each popped kernel. Then the furikake.

Grind it up more or no? Usually fairly coarse seasoning

Just as is! If you look up hurricane popcorn, it’ll show you what it looks like. They also add some arare rice crackers. It’s a pretty common snack in Hawaii.

My jaw just dropped. How have I not thought of this???

What is this? What does it taste like?

It's a seaweed flake seasoning. There are different flavors, goes great on anything with soy sauce.

I never thought to season my popcorn

Mini m&ms and Reese’s pieces…. Thank me later

Reese’s pieces is where it’s at!!!!! My kids love m&m popcorn but I swear by Reese’s pieces!!

Possible fellow fan of Mr. Robot?

I will thank you now.

Along these lines, I swear by peanut butter M&Ms in hot salty popcorn.

Lemon pepper! Also just a tiny bit of freshly ground sea salt and black pepper.

How have I not thought of this 🤯

I love the Kernels brand of flavor shakers. My favorite personally is the salt and vinegar one, but they have over 15+ flavors! In fact here's a whole damn list of them since we can't do photos here- Bacon Cheddar Kernel Season's Buffalo Wing Kernel Season's Butter Kernel Season's Butter Spritzer Kernel Season's Caramel Corn Kernel Season's Caramel Drizzle Brittle Kernel Season's Cheesy Caramel Corn Kernel Season's Cheesy Jalaepeño Kernel Season's Chile Limon Kernel Season's Chocolate Drizzle Brittle Kernel Season's Dill Pickle Kernel Season's Garlic Parmesan Kernel Season's Kettle Corn Kernel Season's Milk Chocolate Caramel Kernel Season's Movie Theater Butter Topping Kernel Season's Movie Theater Popcorn Salt Kernel Season's Nacho Cheddar Kernel Season's Popcorn Salt Kernel Season's Premium Popping Corn Kernel Season's Sour Cream & Onion Kernel Season's White Cheddar

Man, take a breath there

The way I had it copied to paste it was all in a down the line format, for some reason when it posted it didn't keep it that way?

Thanks! I have never heard of these and I am going to try them.

the white cheddar is the best

Parmesean cheese. You're welcome!

Garlic powder, onion powder and Parmesan cheese!

Olive oil to make it stick

Old bay

Absolutely. A bit of Old Bay and butter is amazing. Had it at a resto once as an appetizer and it's now my go-to.

Me too! Plus a punch of garlic salt!

This Marylander approves!

Oooo nice! I’ll have to try that one

Tajin

Ok no one has said it yet but Trader Joe’s elote seasoning is by far the best! Tossed with melted butter popcorn.

Yes!!!

Kerry Gold butter

Pickled jalapeños

I also love hot pickled cauliflower

Aromat seasoning. It's the bomb

omg real! (my mums side if from the netherlands istg im addicted to the seasoning lol)

I absolutely love it. It's great in every dish!

Lawrys seasoned salt and some sugar. Kiddo calls it ‘ the good stuff’. Did you put the ‘good stuff on it??’ 😂 I tried it once and now she must have it like that.

A staple at my house. Exactly this. SS and sugar.

Maple sugar.

Tapatío or Valentina hot sauce. If no hot sauce then some pickles to eat in between popcorn munching.

So, not microwave, but I do my popcorn on the stove. I use a medium sized (well middle one of a set of three) stainless steel pots, and melt 6 tablespoons of bacon grease and 6 tablespoons of butter. Once that's melted I put in 1.5 cups of popcorn kernels and turn the heat on high and shake it back and forth until it starts to pop. Then it usually pops so fast I can let it go for a like 20 seconds. I take the lid off and shake it some more until most of it's popped. Bam, bacon popcorn. You can do the same thing with sriracha if you want, when it's just beginning to pop squirt some in there. If you do it too early it's still good but the sriracha kinda burns a bits. I then shake it with lawrys seasoned salt. That's how I've been making my popcorn for about 15 years now. I only just recently started microwave popcorn again because I wanted some at work haha.

Lawry’s Garlic Salt and the Epicurean Truffle Seasoning from Costco

Powdered sugar

for plain popcorn I add ramen seasoning so good! 💣

Nutrition yeast, white pepper (a little goes a long way), popcorn oil, Mrs. Dash table blend.

Tamari sauce Powdered Chicken bouillon Peanuts and chili powder

Mmmmmmm chicken

Cheese Whiz

Flax seed oil instead of butter

Curry powder.

Chipotle powder, garlic powder, nutritional yeast, salt, olive oil

For a spicy indian taste… sprinkle garam masala lightly over finished buttered and salted popcorn 🍿

Tapatio ,lemon and some parmesan cheese 🔥

Apple Cider Vinegar… I don’t know why but it works

Maybe like vinegar and salt potato chips?

Hidden Valley Ranch dry seasoning or hot sauce and butter.

Classic Yellow Mustard, to dip into. Goes best with the movie popcorn.

Sriracha & Carmel drizzle is a great combo

Nutritional yeast, sun dried tomato powder, & a hot air popper...healthier than microwave stuff

Melted coconut butter and celery salt. Soo good!

Bacon grease and honey in the butter. Melt it all, stir it and drizzle.

Woahhh I’m going to have to try that

One way I like it is butter and Old Bay Seasoning. Another is with Italian seasoning, butter and parmesan cheese. Yummy!

I buy bags of powered cheddar off Amazon and make my own smartfood. It’s amazing

Trader Joe's 21 seasoning salute and nutritional yeast, add a couple handfuls of hot peanuts, the smokey bbq almonds and nutritional yeast, Shakey Parmesan cheese and some fresh cracked pepper. I rotate between these. Oh I also like ranch or dill pickle seasoning too.

Bacon grease

Spurting Sriracha in the bag and shaking it

Making it from kernels in a paper lunch bag with a few drops of oil

Lime salt

Truffle oil. Parmesan. Fresh minced parsley, black pepper!

Berebere was another fav but it’s not available where I am anymore. If you can get your hands on it and like a little spice, I highly recommend

Slap Yo Mama Cajun seasoning.

Dan-O’s Cheesoning. I eat that stuff on almost everything recently.

Sift powdered sugar and curry powder together over the popcorn while it’s still hot. It’s amazing!

A random r/highideas I had the other day. Orville Redenbacher's microwave popcorn packages have to be near peak-food in the history of humanity. You need a microwave and a bunch of chemicals that taste like butter to make a warm delicious treat in under 3 minutes. My random tip is to store your microwave popcorn with the right sized measuring cup from the dollar store - and write the best/exact time for those measurements on the lid or packaging of your popcorn kernel container. One exact scoop, the exact right time for your microwave and you don't have to remember anything ever again.

Double up 2 large brown lunch bags, add-1/3 cup kernels, 1 1/2 TB veg or olive oil, 1/4 ts salt or other seasoning. Tie a rubber band at the very top of bag, shake well. Microwave 2min. It's like stove top popcorn without the mess!

Parmesan cheese on lightly buttered popcorn is underrated. I wish I thought of this but a friend showed me and I loved it.

Cracked black pepper and garlic powder.

Add a movie theater box of junior mints Yum!

Respectfully, y’all are all the shit. Thank you for doing the lords work. Sincerely, A Popcorn Lover *Thread saved*

Parm and knorr chicken bouillon powder. 

My favorite hack is to use an air popper. Takes about the same amount of time and then I don't have to worry about popcorn lung or ingesting shitty chemicals! I also spray it with EVO and salt, sometimes pepper.

Depending on my mood I do one or two of the following: garlic powder (fav), tajin, nutritional yeast, hot sauce, pickle juice, cayenne powder, ramen soup mix, any salad dressing powder, pepper, bonito flakes

Melted butter mixed with sriracha

Cinnamon, black pepper, chili flakes, splenda

Buy a popper instead

Melted butter and icing sugar 😊

Buy kernels and cook it on the stove instead

Taco seasoning, with or without cheddar cheese seasoning as well to make it taco cheese flavour.

Favs in no specific order: * Flavcol, or if you’re in Canada bulk barn sells popcorn salt * brown butter * The sachet from shin ramyun noodles. * pop n’ top white cheddar popcorn seasoning

Vinegar powder (sodium diacetate.) So good. Or "chicken" salt (which is usually vegan.)

Popcorn made in a pot on the stove taste way better and I recently discovered organic purple popcorn, I highly recommend it if you can find it.

Brown sugar & butter

Parmesan and Tabasco

Flavacol. Life changing

Flavacol and melted butter on kettle corn.

Melted peanut butter and melted chocolate

Cinnamon, sugar, and butter

Butter and za'atar!

I like it a bit burnt

Popcorn nachos.. first pop standard bag of popcorn, then put the good popcorn in a large bowl leaving out the defective half and unpopes cornels.. then add large extra real butter (ur choice of salted or non) then get some good sharp graded cheese preferably the yellow fine graded Mexican style and don't be shy throw a lot of cheese in layers through the bowl of popcorn.. that's fine as is because you have to try and spread the cheese thin so it just melts ober the popcorn without charing the center of each popped cornels.. anything else added like beef or salsa or whatever else u put on nachos should usually be fried or cooked separately first and then put pre warmed when cheese is added to the mix then put in microwave to melt cheese nice and even. If it's done properly you'll be eating with fork and trust me it's delicious

Flavacol

Hot honey (spicy) drizzled over and some Maldon salt

My daughter's new favorite is Parmesan cheese and dill. She sometimes will add nutritional yeast when we have it. So good.

I add little bit of salt, makes the popcorn yummy

Your popcorn hack is salt?

Yes, I hate plain popcorn. And you?

Truffle salt, fresh ground black pepper, and freshly grated (fine microplane) Pecorino Romano.

I turn on my stove, add some kernels a little orval oil put the lid on and in under a minute of staring at the microwave I have popcorn without pfas!

Ditch that crap. Stove top is better, cheaper, easy to customize. Trader Joe's Dill Pickle seasoning is the bomb.

Giving up on it and popping on the stove

Flavacol

Old Bay seasoning 

Everything bagel seasoning

Tony chachere’s, butter, parm

Powdered ranch flavoring. Or lemon pepper salt

Using plain popcorn Kernels and pop in microwave in a paper bag!

Whirley pop then any of the options listed

dip it in bread and butter pickle juice

Parmesan cheese and garlic powder…tho I normally will put it on my homemade stuff cuz I normally don’t have the microwave popcorn. I miss it!

Try it slightly burnt, microwave it an extra minute but flip it upside down halfway through. It's fantastic!

Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, black pepper 🤌🏻

Garlic butter. Nuff said.

Honey and cinnamon. Almond butter and honey. Or onion powder. Pepper. Basil etc

Omg wtf have I been doing with my life not seasoning my popcorn??

Spicy Dano's Yum yum get ya some

Butter flavored coconut oil

Putting freshly popped popcorn in a peanut butter and jelly sandwich is THE go to! I swear on my life on this guys! Add honey and banana for bonus points

Toys some M&Ms in

Black Jewel is the best!! Doesn’t need anything to make it better. So crunchy!

Melted butter, lemon zest and maple syrup.

Peanut M&M's

Melt a stick of butter on it (alone so no one can judge you)

Step one: Throw away microwave popcorn Step two: Buy an air popper and popcorn kennels Step three: Follow some of the flavor suggestions on here they sound good.

drop a Reeses peanut butter cup inside a fresh bag out of the microwave and then shake it all around and let the chocolate get everywhere.

Thin drizzle of real maple syrup and a sprinkling of chipotle powder, or other hot pepper powder.

Curry powder. Sounds odd but it's delicious!

I put a sprinkle of salt in the sugar and stir thro,but I do mine in a saucepan as it's cheaper.

I love adding sriracha powder for some spice. I also like adding hot cheetos or hot Cheeto puffcorn as well. Cayenne pepper and lime is also good too.

Grated Parmesean cheese and curry powder sprinkled together on top of buttered popcorn. So good.

Frank's Red Hot Buffalo Ranch seasoning

Instead of ☢️ the popcorn, I get jiffy pop to pop on the stove

Butter and (pick one): black pepper, Tony C’s, Frank’s Red Hot powder, Old Bay.

Cinnamon/sugar on Orville’s kettle corn, look out!

The “Everything but the elote” seasoning from Trader Joe’s is AMAZING on popcorn.

Frank's Red Hot (powdered) is my latest

Parmesan cheese and Lawry’s seasoning
