This popcorn oil is the best for popping corn anywhere. I have used it at home in my PopStir (similar to WhirleyPop) on the stovetop and at school functions in a commercial popcorn popper. If you use this oil, you probably won't even have to add any butter to the popcorn after it's popped - so no cholesterol and less fat. A special feature of this product: It will NOT form black "varnish" inside or outside of your kettle - be it a commercial machine or a home version - it is a clean oil. This oil is solid at room temperature, and you will need some sort of scoop (as an ice cream or cookie scoop) to measure it out of the container. This oil gives popcorn the fragrance, taste and COLOR of commercially popped theater popcorn. You won't regret your purchase of this item.

Pretty good stuff, but I'm finding it hard to emulate that flavor I get in the theater. Instructions with a table showing the proper ratios for popcorn, popping oil and seasoning would have been helpful!! It is far better than Orville's "butter popping oil". The shipping cost was about half the cost of the oil so it would have also been nice to have this as a "free shipping item" even if it would have to be combined with other items.

Gives a really nice taste to popcorn. You can smell the coconut oil. Tastes like theater popcorn. This gets hard - like shortening - when stored in a cool place.

Best popcorn oil I've used. Pop your corn in this, add Flavacol brand salt afterwards (it can be found from other sellers on Amazon or directly from Wabash Valley Farms' website), then add a bit of the "Butter Flavored Popcorn Topping" which WBF also sells here, and your popcorn will be basically identical to what you get at a movie theater.

This product really does work,especially in the stir crazy popper.It makes crunchy popcorn every time.

This popcorn oil does indeed make your popcorn taste like theater popcorn. It is simple and easy to use. I use it in my Whirley-Pop stovetop popper and my popcorn comes out perfect every time. My family and friends love it.

I wouldn't make stove-top popcorn without this oil! It's a little pricey, but worth the money, in my opinion. I use a whirley-pop popcorn maker, and it is a perfect pairing for great popcorn!

I purchased this for my West Bend 82306X Stir Crazy 6-Quart Electric Popcorn Popper that I received at Christmas. Originally I had one jar that my GF purchased with the popper. I ended up buying the 3 pack once we had run through the single jar. This oil is quite good. It has a very buttery flavor to it and pops kernels just fine. In its solid form in the jar it smells like an old movie theater from childhood. Ive since purchasing this item really gotten into popcorn and ive smelled popping oil that had no odor to rancid odors but this product smells great and tastes great as well. What I ended up doing since the bottle is a crazy shape is to stick it in the microwave and melt it so I could pour the liquid oil easily into the Stir Crazy. Don't worry it turns solid again. My only qualm with this is the price. You can purchase Paragon Coconut Popcorn Popping Oil (Gallon) for the same price and receive 128oz of oil versus 48 of the Wabash Valley. If the seller took half off the price it still wouldn't be as good of a deal as the Paragon. That being said I did purchase the three pack and did enjoy it immensely. Tasty but expensive.

This stuff is just like being at the movies....but BETTER!! You now can have movie popcorn at home without all the junk they put in the "fake" stuff at the movie theaters.....the secret is the coconut oil....you won't be disappointed!!

I purchased this item based on the rave reviews but was disappointed. Maybe my expectations were raised too high. It's not bad but I wouldn't call the taste 'real theater'.
