STRIPED CHOCOLATE POPCORN

This is a buttery, salty , sweet , chocolate , white chocolate candy coated pretzel and pecan loaded popcorn treat!
 

Well that was a mouth full!  And so is this popcorn! I’ve never made anything like this before, I have to say this was amazing!  This has everything you could ever want in a popcorn snack.  From, salty to sweet to crunchy and smooth, it’s in there.  My goodness when you have all those flavors together in you mouth it’s incredible.  And it’s easy to make!  You can have this done and be eating it in 45 minutes.  I couldn’t let this alone,  it was just way too good.  If you don’t care for nuts you wouldn’t have to put them in, just add more pretzels, or if you prefer another nut switch the pecan halves out for halved walnuts or whole almonds. This would be a wonderful snack recipe to take to a New Years Eve party.  I guarantee it won’t last long!  Enjoy!

For years consumers have struggled to fit the large round fruit in their refrigerators. And then there was the problem of trying to cut the fruit when it kept rolling around. But 20 years ago a forward-thinking farmer on Japan's south-western   island   of Shikoku solved the problem. The farmer, from Zentsuji, in Kagawa prefecture, came up with the idea of making a cube-shaped watermelon which could easily be packed and stored. To make it happen, farmers grew the melons in glass boxes and the fruit then naturally assumed the same shape. Today the cuboid watermelons are.......................

Mixed Review: Crate & Barrel vs. Trader Joe's Cornbread

Mixed Review: Crate & Barrel vs. Trader Joe's Cornbread : " 'The Trader Joe's cornbread was some of the best cornbread I've tasted, from a mix or otherwise.' Ever wonder about a boxed mix you've seen in the store? Is it any good? Could it replace something you'd otherwise make from scratch? Welcome to Mixed Review , where the whole point is putting boxed mixes to the test! —The Mgmt. Two years ago, I did a roundup of standard supermarket cornbread mixes for this column and was generally unimpressed with all of them. They were gummy, thin, and cloyingly sweet. I called Jiffy, my top choice, 'solid, if not sensational' and recommended doctoring it up with add-ins like sun-dried tomatoes, poppy seeds, and pecans. This year, I thought it was time to revisit the cornbread basket by comparing two readily available specialty mixes: Crate & Barrel's Buttermilk Cornbread Mix ($8.95) and Trader Joe's Cornbread Mix ($2.69).
