One of my work colleagues said he had been desperately trying to get popcorn on his online order, which I know is a first world problem. He reckons everyone is at home so watching TV / films and they want popcorn to go with it. I haven’t been too bad, I keep trying to buy Cinema Sweet and they keep replacing it with Toffee, which sounds okay but in this household means Spectre nicks it and I never see it again. This has happened 3 weeks running! So the last week I called their bluff and ordered this Metcalfe’s Popcorn: Jumbles Eton Mess to literally mix things up. It worked, I finally got some popcorn for myself!
The bag is surprising low in calories, so I didn’t feel to guilty having a large portion while watching Picard. The popcorn is strawberry flavoured, and comes with mini meringue and freeze dried strawberries in the bag. I started out by tasting he popcorn and really liked the dusted strawberry flavour, they were sweet but not overly so. The meringue pieces were lovely, sweet and crunchy and the strawberries had a decent flavour and that crispness that comes with freeze drying. To me the bag has the flavours of summer, and it was perfect to munch on and a fairly low calories snack. I liked them so much in fact I ordered another bag, and their other Toffee Apple variety too. I just need to remember to hide it from Spectre as it mentions the word toffee… wish me luck.
