Great stuff

Wonderful popcorn never a bad batch always pops great. I have been using OR for years with never a problem. Other people that say they don’t get good results must not be getting the pan hot enough or not enough oil.

Nothing Special

This Orville Redenbacher popcorn looks like everyday nothing special bag popcorn. Small skinny kernels. Cooks like regular Jolly Time. Spend a few cents more and get Jolly Time Select. Kernels are plump and cooks up large, fluffy, and crisp.

Deteriorating Quality

I have purchased Orville Redenbacher traditional popping corn for years and have sadly noticed a significant down hill slide in quality this year. I will no longer be purchasing this product.

Popped Corn Tough!

I purchased this a few days ago, after popping in my new hot air popcorn popper it looked nice and large. However the corn is extremely tough and bland in taste. This not the way Orville Redenbacker used to be! Don't waste your money......

Very Good Popcorn

The perfect way to make this in the stove is with avocado oil, less burned popcorn and no smokey oil. Use 2 tablespoons avocado oil to 1/4 cup popcorn kernels.

Orville’s Is My Favorite Popcorn

I use a Whirley Pop popcorn maker on my stovetop. It has a crank for keeping the kernels moving and vents to keep the popcorn crunchy. It pops up fluffy and delicious. I’ve tried expensive popcorn but Orville’s is consistently the best flavor.

Science Project!!!!!!

I have not tried it yet. I am using for a science project. Should be good. Thank you! I prefer other brands but this is cheap for the project. And I needed a ton so thanks for selling in bulk.

The latest purchase is a big disappointment.......

OR has been my goto brand for many years, but this latest jar is of very poor quality: some big/ many small/ lots unpopped, tough kernel shells left in my mouth------ I threw out the rest of the jar.

Chewy like styrofoam peanuts

Popped up A few stovetop batches of the Original. Each batch was consistently soft with no crunch - like chewing on styrofoam packing peanuts. The white popcorn was so much better than this mealy mouthful.
