    Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Cracked black pepper. Then either shaved Parmigiano-Reggiano or nutritional yeast.

    Basically, all the savoury flavours at once - and not as boring as plain salt.

    smoked bell pepper powder, chilli powder, MSG, salt and maybe some powdered onion/garlic.

    tortilla flavoured popcorn, low on calories if made with a hot air popcorn machine.

      Ooo interesting. I bought some for a recipe that I ended up never making. I’ve heard it tastes kind of like cheese. Is that right?

        i wouldn’t say it tastes like cheese on its own, but it is savory and nutty. when mixed with other spices, it hits that “cheesy” note. i am no longer vegan but when i was, i used a lot of nutritional yeast in place of, for instance, parmesan, and it was the base for homemade vegan ricotta, alfredo sauce, broccoli and vegan cheese soup, etc. i really encourage you to try it! also i noticed my cat really enjoys eating it, and apparently a little bit sprinkled on their food is good for them.

        It’s cheeselike. It’s a similar flavor profile but it doesn’t actually taste like cheese. It’s tasty though, I like it with a bit of margarine in grits too.

        I bought some for a vegan gravy recipe (that was shockingly decent, btw), didn’t need most of it and have been slowly using the bag since Thanksgiving. A little goes a long way.

    Flavacol and butter flavored coconut oil. Tastes just like the movie theaters. No story… Just learned about Flavacol at work one day when we were talking about the best way to make popcorn. It’s basically just powdered salt.

    I read somewhere about spraying the liquid from a jar of pickles on popcorn with one of those olive oil misters, like Misto. It sounds excellent, but I worry that the popcorn would get wet and soggy.
