Flavacol Popcorn Season Salt

As we mentioned, this seasoning salt from Flavacol is the one. If you crave that very specific taste of movie theater popcorn at home, this topping is a must-have. You mix it with your cooking oil before you pop for the most authentic flavor but it can be added to cooked popcorn you will just need it to be slightly buttered or oiled so that the powder sticks. There are over 10,000 positive reviews for the stuff on Amazon, making it one of the most popular toppers out there.

Further, this powder can be used for baking and cooking countless other items.

Again, this is great on many different foods including pasta.
