Stale popcorn is better than fresh popcorn

r/

I will die on this hill.

Stale popcorn retains all the buttery and salty goodness but because it doesn’t dissolve in your mouth like the freshly popped stuff so you get little to no kernels stuck in your teeth/gums.

That is all.

    Do you also like stale bread instead of fresh bread?

    All the pre-popped popcorn you buy in bags would probably be considered stale and I like it. Perhaps it’s just the flavorings used and I prefer my food cold.

    I LOVE stale popcorn! I don’t know why, but I love the texture so much more than fresh popcorn! When my family makes popcorn for a movie in the evening, I’ll save the extra and bring it with me to work as a snack haha

    This is like a perfect unpopular opinion. I hate stale popcorn, it gets gummy and sticks to your teeth and I feel like the flavor is kinda gone too.

    The only thing I like better as stale is marshmallows and sometimes gummys

    Popcorn can be popped months ahead and sealed in an airtight container once cooled, but it should only be dressed right before its served. So you may be half-right.

    This is likely an unpopular opinion but I agree with you.
