POPCORN PLANET Lightly Sea Salted Popcorn (Pack of 24)

I was initially sceptical about this popcorn but I was very pleasantly surprised!The bags are all measured out and sealed, and the popcorn is really tasty. I won’t have any other brand now and am going to order this from now on. I would definitely recommend this.

Usually, when it comes to popcorn I do the large bags in the microwave, eat too much and then feel uncomfortable, hence these small bags are much better. They certainly smell good and remind me of the aroma of cinema popcorn. The level of salt is just right for me and although they're named lightly salted, I'd probably call them salted, especially as I ate more of them. The first piece I had, had a bit of a burnt aftertaste, but that must have been a one off because after that, they were lovely. They're on the softer side and only once in a packet did I get a squeak.Most of the bags were completely popped, some had a couple of kernels in the bottom. They expire in July 2022 and although marked as gluten free, the packets do say that they're packed on premises with other products containing gluten. I'm gluten free, but luckily cross contamination isn't an issue for me. Overall, I really like these and a single pack is more filling than I expected. The first packet did have quite a few hard pieces in though. They're definitely much nicer than the big supermarket packets, that's for sure.

Not worth it...

I'd not tried savoury popcorn prior to this Popcorn Planet version. It's okay - it is lightly, not strongly, salted and a healthier snack than some being low fat, relatively low in carbs and containing only 91 calories per bag and being vegan and gluten free.However, there was an issue with the pack of 24 I received. Whilst all the individual bags showed a Best Before date of the end of July 2022, the outer brown cardboard box displayed an Expiry Date of 30th August 2022.Of itself, this may seem slight but at the same time I received a same size box of this brand's Sweet Popcorn that was more than a month out of date according to the on-pack Best Before dates but still in date according to the 30th May 2022 Expiry Date on the outer box.I can only only take it that insufficient attention is being paid to detail by Popcorn Planet - which has lowered my overall confidence in the brand. And as the one bag of Lightly Salted we've had so far contained 4 or 5 un-popped kernels that would be best avoided if you'd rather not break a tooth coupled with a very punchy price point, I'd only give this product a 3 star rating.

at 24 packs for the current price of 19.99 i think this is quite a fair deal as the individual popcorn bags themselves are fairly big and a decent sized portion.they are very handy for packed lunches or for taking on the go for a healthier snack.I wasn't disappointed in the flavour of these although i found them more salty than advertised which was a welcomed bonus.I usually buy the larger pop corn brand in the foil style packaging but i can say i actually preferred this brand. I wasn't left with hundreds of un-popped kernels.My only niggle was that the popcorn itself was on the softer side, its not as crunchy as some but i kind of liked it this way and the kids certainly didn't complain.They are vegan and all natural flavourings. Also gluten free!I would certainly purchase these in future!

Comes in just a plain cardboard box, you get 24 individual bags of popcorn inside. Each bag is 20g and 91 calories. A salted flavour and gluten free. The design of the packaging is quite plain, simple and basic with a label stuck on both the front and back- which isn't even stuck on straight. Personally I didn't go much on them, they had a slightly soft chewy texture, as though they are stale or had been left open for awhile. I also found they were quite bitty, like alot of kernel shells left in my mouth after. Not as nice as the usual popcorn we buy. The best before date is july. The outside of the box says best before August so doesn't match the bags inside. To me, very over priced. Unfortunately I wouldn't recommend.

Huge box of popcorn. I wasn't expecting the box to be so large, but this will last many movie nights as I find one bag to be good enough for two people.The bags are pretty big and give a very good portion of popcorn for an entire movie. The quality and flavour of popcorn to me at least felt like cinema quality popcorn. It had the perfect amount of crunch to it. Salt wise, I found it to be very strong and found myself drinking plenty of water for the rest of the day, however, I still enjoyed the popcorn and would have them again. Another pro was no corn kernels or hard shells, each piece popped nicely and left no bits in my mouth.Really good value for money with these. The expiry date on my box was for several months which is more than enough time to get through them.

I got this "Lightly Salted" version and they arrive in a plain cardboard box. Each individual bag is 20g and though I haven't eaten every single bag, I found the popcorn in the few I've had to be ok.This isn't "gourmet" popcorn by any means so I disagree with the packaging, but I'd call it a (less catchy), no-frills, no-nonsense popcorn. The salt levels were as described and there is a hint of salt. Kernels are a decent size and there was the odd unpopped kernel (which can happen even with very expensive popcorn).In terms of value, it's not too bad considering it will be delivered to your door but you can get smaller (10g to 14g) bags in multipacks of six from the supermarket that would theoretically work out cheaper, but there is the obvious convenience of getting the one big box.These would be good for a party or private cinema screening.
