  1. This is my favorite snack food!! I always get requests for the recipe wherever I take it. I only use half the cayenne, though...I am a wimp when it comes to spicy food.
     
  2. Excellent, however I did use the Orville Reddenbacher butter flavored popcorn oil instead and used garlic powder instead of the salt!!! Love it hot...Another Texan..Lena
     
  3. I have been making these for 2 yrs now during the holidays to add to my xmas pkgs and they always get great reviews. Easy to make, delicious and also very cost efficient. Thanks so much
     
  4. We really enjoyed the flavor of these. Quite spicy, but not overly so. We enjoyed them more after a few days; still very spicy but the flavor was even better.
     
  5. I just pulled this recipe out of my TOH stack of issues to make for the holidays. I make these and put them in cellophane bags and give them for gifts in a basket with goodies. They are wonderful. Thanks for posting, now I don't have to go on a recipe hunt.
