How large are the flakes? Do you think the flakes would work on popcorn?

I put the yeast flakes in my grated cheese shaker in place of Parmesan cheese and use it on the same dishes where I would use Parmesan; salads, soups, pastas, wraps etc. No one has ever questioned it. To preserve freshness, I cover the top with small piece of plastic and hold it on with a "pony tail band" and keep it in the fridge. The shaker makes it very convenient for putting on popcorn as people can add as much as they like. I like to use Bragg's liquid amino acids spray in place of salt. It makes the yeast flakes attach to the popcorn more effectively. JC Groff.

indeed! that is my favorite use for these. and on pasta...actually, I use them on many of the foods I eat.

Fairly small -- a bit smaller than red pepper flakes but larger than dried basil? They're very brittle; you could just rub them together between your palms to sprinkle them over popcorn.

The flake size kind of reminds me of fish food lol. But it works great on popcorn and tastes yummy!

Yeah, great on popcorn! (If you like/can tolerate the flavor)! Thanks for all of your time! Thanks for reading my comments! God bless!

I usually have a few that fly out (6-8 avg) not a large amount. Might try a different popcorn that appears to have a larger kernel thus having a little more moisture and a little more weight. Trial and error might be my only real suggestion.

I don't see why not. If you have a microwave popcorn popper I would think that it would work fine but I would caution you that this popcorn releases a lot of energy when popping. It may blow open the top of the popper if you have your regular amount of kernels in it. When I pop it the kernels really bang against the inside of my popping kettle, louder than any other popcorn I've used recently. Hope this answers your question.

I tired it in a regular kettle and shook it a little but it wasn't enough to stir the oil and salt so the popcorn, although popped, was very bland. However, if you had a hand popcorn kettle with a turning lever on the bottom of the kettle and could stir it by hand it should turn out fine.

Hello! Sorry, I never use for popcorn kernels.But the holes is OK.No fall through.

If the kernals aren't too large they will pass through as holes are all over bottom and sides so with a shake or too should work.Fair size holes and shaped so whould work but you could always widen holes a bit if needed to make it work as it is plastic. My only concern is how hot kernels get might melt the plastic a bit.

I believe you would have to use a gravity hopper for the popcorn texture. If textture is there and you are just repainting then yes it will work

I haven't try anything but plain popcorn kernels. Sorry I could not be more help.

I don't think so... This thing is gravity fed, and I don't think popcorn weighs enough for it to function properly. Plus, even if it did, I think the pieces would get crushed and/or broken in process and be kind of a mess.

Guess it depends on the size of the individual packs. Not a product that would meet my popcorn-consumption style, so I've given it no thought!

Yeah. It does great popping. Very few unpopped kernels. Kettle corn also comes out really well.

I haven't tried pop corn, but I've used it for cereal that's approximately the same size without problem. I've also used it for larger items, again without problem

I had the same problem with this questionable purchase...no instructions of any kind. The way I figured this out was to buy some of what are called "Popcorn Kits". These are all in one packages with the kernels, Coconut Oil, and Flavacol salt all pre-measured in a single package. They are sold to match the typical popcorn machine; that is, for your 8 ounce machine, you would buy an 8 ounce kit. This refers to the finished weight; that is, an 8 ounce machine will make 8 ounces (weight) of finished popcorn. The package contains 8 fluid ounces of kernels, I poured my kernels into a measuring cup and discovered that it contains 8 fluid ounces of kernels. The oil is usually stated in Tablespoons (1 Tsp = 0.5 fl. oz.). The Mega Pop kit that I used, had about 6 Tbsp--about 3 ounces--of Coconut Oil. So, the Mega Pop is 8 ounces of kernels and about 3 ounces of Coconut Oil. The general rule of thumb for popcorn is one ounce of oil for three ounces of kernels. With these machines, you put all the oil in, let it heat, then add all the kernels and the Flavacol. As the kernels pop, they will cascade out of the popper, until all the kernels are done. There are videos all over YouTube on the use of these machines. Here's one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eW5zs2Tpp5M

Maybe if they had a smaller version you could use for cereal. They are are fairly deep and if you collapse tem a little there is a ridge. Might work.

It is big enough for a snack size popcorn bag, and it's very fast 1m-30s. It dose have a popcorn button which suggests it is most likely big enough. Just be very careful of the timing.

yes, but we usually use them for popcorn balls since it doesn't stick to the sides

I don't have alot of unpopped kernels ..use a better larger kernel popcorn. But I do put a dishcloth over the *top of the popper and bowl...when almost done popping ....use a large bowl! * only when not melting butter. And the popcorn that escapes my dog runs and eats before I can get to!
