Amish Country Popcorn | 8-4 oz Bags | Stovetop Popping Sampler Pack with Canola Oil and BallPark ButterSalt | Old Fashioned, Non-GMO and Gluten Free (Stovetop Sampler - 8-4 oz Bags)

So here's everything you need to know about this popcorn. They send you 10 different sampler baggies which make about 3 medium sized bowls of popcorn each. It's non-GMO (as are all popcorn kernels from what I've researched). The packaging and the ad don't say anything about being certified as organic, but from what I can tell, it doesn't seem like they use pesticides on their corn. I bought one of those ~$7 silicone popcorn makers on Amazon that goes in the microwave to test this popcorn, and it worked perfectly (no oil or anything else required). I did not use any popcorn toppings in my testing to give as accurate of a description as possible. The following is how each popcorn stacked up, from best to worst:1. Purple: medium diameter, soft and tender, but just slightly more crunchier than the white, a small amount of hull but not bad, the popcorn flavor really comes through, and definitely had the best flavor out of all of them, per the packaging supposedly it's higher in antioxidants2. (A very close second) Baby White: small diameter, soft and tender, little to no hull, neutral flavor3. Medium White: same as baby white but medium diameter4. Ladyfinger: extra small diameter, soft and tender, little to no hull, neutral flavor5. Red: same as purple, but with less popcorn flavor6. Medium Yellow: medium diameter, slightly less soft and slightly more crunchy than the others, more hull noted, slightly more popcorn flavor than the white7. Mushroom: large diameter, pops in a ball, crunchy, but kinda chewy, some hull noted, mild popcorn flavor with a hint of "corn nuts" flavor8. Caramel type: large diameter, crunchy but kinda hard, "caramel type" (ie the type of popcorn they use for caramel popcorn, so not caramel flavored), some hull noted, not the best flavor (prolly why they put caramel on it)9. Blue: medium diameter, crunchy, but not really soft, flavor not the greatest (kind of off putting), some hull but not bad10. Rainbow: just a mix of all of them (put last because every bite was a roll of the dice)If you want the best flavor, go with the purple (I just bought a large bag of this one, and find it doesn't need any salt or butter or anything else to make it taste good). If you want the best texture, go with the baby white (I would recommend at least a little popcorn salt with this one though). Or buy the sampler and have fun trying all the different kinds to find which one you like best. I used to buy the bags of microwave popcorn, until I researched the ingredients and found some pretty gnarly stuff in them, so I bought a giant handle of the Orville Redenbacher's popcorn kernels (thinking it would be healthier), and instantly tossed it due to the pesticides on it making me feel bad afterwards (you can feel the pesticides coating the inside of your mouth after you're done, even if you rinse out your mouth with water). Nothing like that at all with the Amish Country ones. This is the only popcorn I will ever buy again. The Amish definitely know their corn. Weird Al Yankovic approves ;)Did you find this review helpful?

Really enjoyed trying ten different flavors and found most to be really good, with more flavor than any other popcorn I've found. Ended up ordering 6 pounds of the Baby Whites. This sample pack is very nicely packaged and would make a great gift.

Purchase as a gift for friends they enjoyed

healthy choice

So fun! We bought it for friends as a gift! So much appreciated!!

Great popping in a microwave- very few unpopped kernels.

Nice to try a variety of different styles.

Either my Amish Popcorn is not up to snuff, old etc or I have lost my ability to pop corn like I have been doing for 60 plus years! I have tried the silicone popper I bought with the popcorn and tried my air popper, also. There is about 1/2 that won’t pop in either scenario. I kept on with the attempt to pop to the point of burning the silicone! I am disappointed and thought about sending it all back but it is too much trouble! I wasn’t gonna leave a review but this popped up (pun intended) in my email so there ya have it.
