Awesome mushroom popcorn
  This popcorn is the absolute best mushroom popcorn i have bought out there. It is better than the description on the website and most of the kernels pop as mushroom, unlike that of their competitor, nuts.com, whose alleged mushroom popcorn popped more like butterfly than mushroom. The popcorn arrived quickly, though the shipping is a bit pricey. However it is well worth it and i will be a repeat customer.

  I was so thrilled to find the mushroom popcorn. I ordered 5 lbs and it was deliverd promptly!! Of course I popped some immediately !! It popped up great!! I like hot air popped corn, drizzled with butter, but I will definitely be making some carmel corn soon. As per directions, I let the air popper warm up for at least a minute (but I always do that with any corn--way bigger/better) I love my mushroom popcorn !!!

  I used up 2# of my 5# bag of my mushroom popcorn in making caramel corn to give at Christmas time. Loved it. Got rid of most of the larger hulls by rough handling it several times from one bowl to another. the big kernels stood up well to that abuse. My observation is that 90% were the nice big kernels. I won't go back to microwave popcorn again

Great corn!
  I've been trying to buy mushroom popcorn for years, but could never find anyone willing to sell me anything smaller than a 25 pound bag. I've popped two batches so far and bit have popped perfectly with 90 percent of the corn fat and clunky like mushroom popcorn should be. Old maids were no more than I would typically expect with my popping method. One tip: don't eat the popcorn fresh from the pan. You need to let it stand for several minutes to allow it to lose some residual moisture and turn crisp and crunchy. This is a wonderful corn for making caramel or cheese corn.

  Mushroom popcorn from justpoppin is the ONLY option I would consider for Caramelcorn. I first learned about mushroom popcorn from a Karmelkorn shop owner about 30 - no 40 years ago. She told me that it wasn't available to the "public." Well, things have changed Alice, and it is available. The nice round popcorn pieces hold up well to stirring and all the things that go into making REAL Caramalcorn - I suppose the would be OK for that baked stuff too but I haven't tried that. I LOVE the stuff! Everyone should try it!

Here it is. The secret
  Ever wonder how the gourmet popcorn shops make their popcorn so big and round? This is the secret to great flavored popcorn. My recipe for kettle corn: put a couple tablespoons corn oil in a whirly gig popper and heat it pretty high heat. Now you have to work fast. Throw a third cup of these beautiful kernels in and get a quarter cup of granulated sugar ready. Stir. When the first kernel pops, throw the sugar in and stir like crazy. The skill and practice comes in now because you need to get this popped and off the heat. About 20 seconds is all and get it in a bowl. Better repeat or everybody will be crying more. Salt as you break up the corn and its cooling. Go ahead, take credit for your work. This popcorn is the best. Hardly any butterflies so far. Amazing.

[Note from JustPoppin: Thanks for the review. The hulls of mushroom popcorn kernels tend to be more firm than those of other kernels because of the excessive steam pressure required for the mushroom kernel's super-explosive pop. Use the Kernel Katcher bowl to remove unpopped kernels and excess hulls for a more enjoyable eating experience.]

Mushroom popcorn
  The popcorn was beautiful and the hulls were easy to deal with. For me, the problem was the texture. This popcorn was rather tough and chewy, not at all enjoyable. Very disappointing after how wonderful the movie theater and the hull-less popcorns were. I will have to file this under the expense category "experience".

[Note from Just Poppin: We feel that all of our customers should have good experiences with our popcorn. If you don't, then we encourage you to contact us for Personalized Popping Support.

The chewy texture comes from the excess moisture in the kernel. Mushroom Popcorn has a much higher moisture content than other popcorn varieties. It needs the extra moisture to create enough steam for the explosive pop that helps create the mushroom shaped flakes.

Residual moisture is always left behind. After the popcorn is poured into a bowl it needs to sit for a minute or two to let the excess steam evaporate otherwise you may find it chewy.

For other crunchy tips please see our FAQ. ]

  I got myself some coconut oil from a local store and my 10lb order of mushroom popcorn. Put the oil in the pot on medium-high (gas stove) and 3 kernels. Well, I burned the first batch; only about half the kernels popped and they all looked like butterfly popcorn. And super burnt. Disapointed, I scrubbed my pot for almost 2 hrs. My problem: the oil was too hot. (hint: if it starts smoking, that's bad! Mom was right.) When I popped the corn again using medium heat, it popped great! Very few unpopped kernels... But lots of hulls. Still, it's exactly like the description says. After the popcorn cools, it's really fluffy and crunchy... So good. LOVE IT!

  Oh my goodness!!! This popcorn is the best I have ever had, this is my first order for JustPoppin.com. It is the largest kernals I have ever seen. It is so crunchy, a bowl is almost a meal in itself. I did find that I use a non stick pan that the lid has way to open the vent so air can escape, which is very important. I have to have the gas flame just right, add enough Light Olive oil to the bottom. Once done, dump into bowl and spray Can't Believe its Not butter, salt and its ready to go. The kernals are huge, but airy, crunchy and it always tastes great. When I get home from work, I make up some popcorn for my husband and I and its just a great snack and delicious.

Mushroom Popcorn
  This Mushroom Popcorn is just what I had first enjoyed years ago at an NBA game. Years later I finally found this rare popcorn on JustPoppin. This Mushroom Popcorn was just as good as I remembered: large round popped size color and flavor. The only downside for some might be the extra hulls. Just gently stir and fold the popped corn in a big bowl with a wooden spoon. The gentle stirring action effectively rubs off about 75% of these hulls to the bowl's bottom.

  I just loved the popcorn as it has a very wonderful taste and pops up nice and large.. I'm having over a group of friends tomorrow to watch movies, so I will be making it for them for the first time.. I eat it almost every day, as its a good source of fiber and good when your trying to lose weight, as it fills you up, but you need to be careful not to add any butter.... I will be back when I run out to buy more! Aloha

GREAT popcorn!
  I am hard pressed to find a larger popping kernel available anywhere. There are more hulls to shake off, but it's a small price to pay for such great popcorn. I use Mushroom popcorn to make my own cracker jacks (with cayenne pepper). Everyone marvels at the size of the popcorn. It's crunchy yet tender. Fantastic.

Great popcorn for kettle corn

Not quite what I was expecting...
  I'm not a kettlecorn fan, but wanted to try a large sized popcorn just to see what it was like. The yield was nice with very few unpopped kernels and zero burnie bottoms. The popcorn kernels themselves were very large but the hulls were tougher than I anticipated and it seemed somewhat less than fresh. Perhaps the special bowl the website offers would help with the hulls but I'm not sure it's worth the $14 to buy one. I'm on the fence about whether to purchase this variety again.

[editors note: Thank you for your comment. For more information and an explanation on Mushroom Popcorn hulls, please read the entry in our FAQ "My mushroom popcorn has more hulls than I expected. Is this normal?"

Regarding your "less than fresh" experience. This likely was caused by either not letting enough steam escape while popping, OR not allowing the popcorn to cool slightly before eating. As stated on our Tip Sheet which goes out with every order, "Popcorn right out of the popper is warm and yummy but is often still moist and somewhat chewy. Waiting a couple of minutes will allow enough time for the last bits of moisture to evaporate and give you the best results." Mushroom popcorn in particular has a higher moisture content than other popcorn.]

99% consistency of MUSHROOM kernels
  I've tried other companies selling mushroom kernels (on ebay)—their kernels consisted of 99.9% BUTTERFLY kernels. Messages to these companies about the lack of Mushroom kernels went unanswered. Just Poppin's mushroom kernels, however, were the opposite--a good 99% consistency of MUSHROOM kernels, with a very high pop rate. And the flavor is excellent, too. The price for size and shipping rates also are extremely fair and more than competitive. Overall: great company, great product! Thanks!

Big and Tender, but watch out for tough hulls
  I think te reason this corn pops so large is tat the hulls are a bit tougher and therefore cause the corn to pop at a higher temperature. The hulls are very tough and you shouldn't eat them. We found that by shaking the popped corn, the hulls that were loose would fall to the bottom of the bowl and we could the transfer the corn to another bowl. Shaking may also help to loosen the hulls that don't fall off.

I received what I ordered fast and conveniently. The free sample of the hull less pop corn was a nice touch. This is no reflection on the company but I noticed that mushroom popcorn has a lot of hulls, that needed to be spit out during eating and many hull fell off into the bowl. I wondered if this is the nature of mushroom pop corn. The pop corn tasted great and would order again.

[editors note: Thanks for the kind comment. The hulls of mushroom popcorn kernels tend to be more firm than those of other kernels because of the excessive steam pressure required for the mushroom kernel's super-explosive pop. Use the Kernel Katcher bowl to remove unpopped kernels and excess hulls for a more enjoyable eating experience.]

A Note About Mushroom Popcorn

"Mushroom" popcorn refers to popcorn that has much more of the ball-shapes than typical "butterfly" popcorn. Regular (butterfly) popcorn on average will have maybe 5% ball shapes.

According to many growers, 35-45% ball shapes would be considered "mushroom popcorn". However, we hold our farmers to a higher standard - our popcorn averages more than 65% ball shapes (usually much more).

When you purchase commercially produced caramel corn and see perhaps 80-90% ball shapes, such as Cracker Jacks, not only are they using mushroom popcorn, but they remove most of the non-ball shapes through extensive processing.

The method of popping also plays a large part in the percentage of "mushrooms". Commercial poppers are able to maintain the exact temperature needed, so home users may need to experiment a few times with their stove-top poppers to get the desired results.

Don't forget to read our "Absolute Best Home Popping Method" for information or contact us if you have any questions.
