Questions & Answers
Underneath the lid, there is a seal. I can't speak to other people's opinions, but I bought six of the eight-pound bags of popcorn. There is no damage to the property. The seals are still intact, and it comes in a box. I eat a lot of popcorn, and my most recent order was for three 8-pound containers because buying two would have cost nearly as much as buying three. Because these are occasionally out of stock, I keep an eye out for them before my current batch runs out.
In 2015, I bought/expired a large container that I opened and then forgot about. I tried it recently and it STILL popped really well in my hot air popper despite the lid being on tight and in the back of the cupboard! I don't think it will go bad if you keep it sealed in the container or airtight jar.
Except for a few kernels that fly out at the beginning, I use a hot air popper, and everything pops. I used the 5 bottle and followed the company's recommendation to keep the lid screwed on tight between uses.
Selected User Reviews For Orville Redenbacher’s Original Gourmet White Popcorn Kernels, 30 Ounce, Pack of 6
THE CONTAINER HAS BEEN BROKEN. It arrived shattered and blew up all over the place. I had to get rid of some kernels because I didn't know where they came from. It claims that I am ineligible for a refund. It's such a sad waste of money.
I use a Wabash Valley Farms stove top popcorn maker, and these are by far the worst popcorn kernels I've used in a long time. I've tried a variety of popcorn kernels, including individualized packages, and they've all turned out great: light, airy, and flavorful popcorn. and so on. I thought I'd do myself a favor and buy a large jug of kernels to last a while, but I'm sorry I did. I've tried three different batches of Redenbacher's Gourmet Kernels, and they've all failed miserably. The texture is hard, chewy, and rubbery. Stay away from this overpriced brand name and do not purchase it. popcorn kernels with a specific brand name What a colossal squandering of funds.
Orville Redenbacher's Gourmet Popcorn is all of that, folks! It's up there with the best popcorn I've ever had. Which is unfortunate because they can be found anywhere, at any time. Read on. br>br>I'm a huge fan of popcorn. Popcorn is one of my favorite snacks. Four times a week, and one of these eight jugs will be gone in no time. That was a little too fast. Years ago, I used to buy it in three jars from Target, but they stopped carrying it, and the smaller jars at the supermarket were simply too rich for my blood - I went back to Jolly Time. br>br>Over the years, I've tried a lot of popcorn (hundreds of pounds), and Orville Redenbacher's is simply and consistently the best, while Jolly Time is OK. Trader Joe's 'Organic' is also acceptable (good flavor, lower volume, and the occasional stone). However, it's O in terms of volume, texture, and flavor. by a long shot br>br>Which is a shame, because the stuff is pricey! Let me just take a moment to stand on my soapbox. I'm particularly enraged because it cost $11 between the time I bought my first jug at Amazon in October and now. I bought it again in January (TWO jugs - 49) and it was the same price as before. It cost $14 after attempting other brands and failing to be satisfied. Last fall, the price of corn didn't rise all that much, but Amazon decided I was a sucker enough. br>br>I fought the gouge by returning to Jolly Time and then to Trader Joe's 'Organic. ' 'Unfortunately, once you've had the best, you won't be satisfied with anything less. ' I'm back, and I'm getting ripped off again, but I'm willing to pay the price. Amazon, you should be ashamed of yourself. br>br>At the end of the day, it's a gourmet item. If you want the best, you'll have to pay for it. I do. However, I am dissatisfied with my current situation. Even though it offends me, I believe the value outweighs the cost, at least for the time being. It is possible that your results will differ.
Today I opened this nice big recloseable container, popped my first batch, and YUCK, the popcorn must have been sold because it tastes like rubber. It was not a pleasant experience.
This item is a colossal failure. It pops to softness and has a taste that is bland. I had hoped for more from a large corporation such as Orville. Now I have a large jug of corn that I'm debating whether or not to turn into sour mash in order to make moonshine.
I've always bought this brand's yellow popcorn, but after reading some reviews, I decided to try the white - and I'm glad I did. This popcorn is said to have fewer hulls and be more tender. br>I've never been able to find OR popcorn in anything other than very small, expensive jars (like $7. 99 for what appears to be about 8 or 10 ounces tucked away on the bottom shelf), and I thought this pack of six 30 ounce jars was a steal. I was concerned that I would receive an out-of-date product. br>I didn't think I had any concerns because the popcorn was still well past its expiration date. br>In a large heavy pan, I make popcorn on the stovetop: 2 or 3 kernels in enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan, cover, and heat over medium-high heat Wait for them to pop on a low flame, then add enough popcorn to cover the bottom of the pan in a single layer. cover - Once the popping begins to slow down, remove the pan from the heat and continue to shake. br>So, here's how it went for me: The white popcorn takes a little longer to start popping, and once it does, it doesn't pop as loudly as the yellow popcorn (it pops the top off the kettle just like in the old TV commercials!). I suppose this could be due to the product's storage conditions prior to purchase, but it didn't appear to be as fresh. Although white popcorn is more delicate than regular popcorn, the pan was not completely full and there were more unpopped kernels than I expected. So far, I've made four batches and experimented with the heat. The kernels were not as large and fluffy as the yellow popcorn, but they were cooked in the same amount of oil each time. They were also not as good as the yellow popcorn in my opinion. br>It will be a long time before I need to buy popcorn again, but I will definitely try a small jar of this popcorn before purchasing a large batch of white OR popcorn.
Popcorn is what it is. Popcorn costs a lot of money. I'd suggest doing some price comparisons before making a purchase.
I wish I enjoyed working with small groups of people. This isn't as good as farm-grown, artisanal heirloom popcorn. But I don't think so. Every time I try another kind, I regret it because this GMO'd magical stuff pops up so fresh, big, light, and crisp in my oil popper, with so few unpopped kernels and such tender centers. br>br>I also resent myself for buying the individually packaged smaller containers, which contributes to increased plastic consumption, but this format does solve the going-out problem. recurring issue with larger formats (despite my best efforts, I do not move through this at an alarmingly high volume - I'm only a single lady! br>br>I highly recommend popping your popcorn in coconut oil and tossing it with popcorn salt, garlic powder, and nutritional yeast (this has nothing to do with my product review; I'm just saying it's the best way to eat the best popcorn).
