Amish Country Popcorn

Apparently Amish Country Popcorn abuses takes full advantage of USPS Priority Mail for their Bargain Shipping deals, as all three of these bags were stuffed into a somewhat distended and unexpectedly heavy Medium Flat Rate box when it arrived at my house.

After Erik and Kristi gave Danielle and I some of this popcorn and we compared it side by side with standard store-brand yellow popcorn I couldn’t help but order some. While I normally like plain yellow popcorn, in comparison to this it tasted noticeably dull and starchy whereas the purple version of this popcorn had a solid corn taste to it. I now understand what kurtm was on about when he explained to me how much better proper quality popcorn can be. I imagine this eighteen pounds will keep us in popcorn for quite a while, but it was only 2x the shipped cost of 6 pounds and ensures that there will be plenty to share.

    With your package being 52# lighter then their weight limit, I don’t know if this even comes close to abuse. ;)

    Nick: I guess I hadn’t realized it’s that high. Now I have a great way to ship metal plates!

    IIRC, I can get this in bulk when I go to Indiana. Remind me to bring some back this Christmas. :)
