    I also bought a bag at the Plantation Point Farmers' Market...blame it totally on the other Yelpers…read more(Rachel and Rod) who posted pics that literally sent me flying out to find this popcorn. Sigh, I am weak. And this is really good popcorn! When I said that I preferred savory to sweet, the gal recommended their Platinum mix, and she was so right!

    Popcorn on crack......and it's just as addictive…read more There's not really much else I really need to say, however, i will. We went to the Farmer's market at Plantation point one rainy saturday and bought a bag of their Platnium Mix (caramel and white Cheddar popcorn). Before the day ended the bag was some how empty. i'm pretty sure there was a whole in the bottom and it all fell out.......that's my story and i'm sticking to it! Needless to say, since it all "fell out" we....well technically, I.....my husband was unaware of my shopping decision since he was busy starring at knives, decided to buy the BIG bag of Platnium this time.........There are several other wonderful flavors available, but i am in love with the salty sweet combo. But regardless of what you get, just go ahead and save yourself the time and get the big bag. Not only are you supporting local yummyness, which really should be motivation enough, but you're getting a great and deeee-licious product! (p.s they also are a great fundraising option for all you school people out there, and their popcorn is very reasonably priced!)

    I chose Carolina Popcorn Shoppe because it was the only popcorn place in the area that I could find…read moreon google and I am so happy that I found it! The business is situated inside of a small shopping center and there probably always a parking space due to the location When I called the lady answered the phone and she was really nice! She told me that they normally take orders 24 to 48 hours in advance but I called at the perfect time because they were just popping popcorn! I was so happy about that! I ordered 2 bags of their bulk popcorn! The bags individually feed about 40 people! And they are huge! I ended getting 2 because I wasn't for sure if it would be enough and it ended up being plenty I still have an unopened one left! They offer so many flavors. While waiting to pay I was able to try a sample of their caramel siracha popcorn! And it spicy but good! I paid $36 for both bags which was extremely awesome. Overall great store, I would definitely recommend them for huge events! Or if you love popcorn!

    Popcorn. It's hard to go wrong with it when it's fresh. It doesn't matter if it's plain or…read moreflavored. It's a nearly guilt-free indulgence even when mixed with sugary flavorings. It's popcorn, after all. What are a few spoonfuls of caramel or chocolate or nuts? Because some of the flavors use air-popped corn, that means there's no guilt. The calories evaporate when it's air-popped. At least that's how I convince myself it's okay. Carolina Popcorn Shoppe helps you feel better about indulging. They use all natural ingredients (except for the vanilla flavoring in the popcorn that uses it) and it's made fresh. Anything more than a couple of days old gets thrown out. Since there are no preservatives, the product won't keep long and the Shop doesn't make a lot of it in advance. If you're willing to wait, though, they'll make you a fresh batch. On average it's about a 15 minute wait while they fire up the popcorn popper and get things going. I haven't been there while they've done that, but the smell of popcorn popping is one of those "yum" aromas that might make the wait a must-do. If you decide to wait while they make your particular flavor popcorn, or put together a tin or a few big bags to take home or give as a gift, the shop has 3 or 4 tables and a refrigerated cooler with soft drinks for purchase. You can buy the popcorn in nearly any size from a couple of ounces to a pound or more. The hours it's open are limited, but you can always go online and order. It's also available at a couple of shops in the Triangle (e.g. Southern Season, NOFO, Gingham and Posh) so you'll never be too far away from a popcorn fix.

A selection of potato chips on offer include Outer Banks Sea Salt, Down East Carolina BBQ, Bee Sting Honey-Sriracha, Mama Gin Dill Pickle, Salt and Balsamic Vinegar, Rosemary and Garlic, Cream Cheese and Chive, Coastal Crab Boil, Kettle Cooked Russel Potato and Sweet Potato Gold. I chose the Cozumel Jalapeno Queso. The bag was quite full of chips. Yes, a lot of air but that also meant that my chips weren't broken into little crumbs. Big potato chips, lots of flavor.

    It's hard for me to give this place a whole hearted accurate review seeing that I'm not a popcorn…read morefan, other than kettle corn, which they didn't have (yet, they quickly said!) I stopped in on my way to the Juice Shop out of curiosity and was greeted friendly by the employees and offered samples of anything. They had quite a number of sample jars of all sorts of popcorn from sweeter "candy flavors" (think the fair colored popcorn in purple and green) to the salty flavors of dill pickle, pizza, and jalapeño BBQ to name a few. At their suggestion I tried French Toast which was good but seeing I'm not a fan of overly sweet popcorn I couldn't eat a bunch of it. But for those people who like caramel corn, this is right up your alley. I happened to like the pizza and jalapeño BBQ flavors, and wanted to try the dill pickle but also didn't want to look like I was just eating a bunch of samples. Wait, I think I was already doing that... Prices seemed a little high, but then again I'll clearly state again I'm not a popcorn fan so why would I pay for something I'm not a fan of? People who love popcorn might think its reasonable, so take my words with a grain of salt. If you ever remember the old Cotton Mill Square popcorn stand, the smell of candy corn wafting through the halls and that brings good memories to you, you might want to check this place out.

    I bought a groupon for this place, since I'm a popcorn-a-holic and supporter of local businesses…read more I'm admittedly disappointed in this place. The flavors are unique and plentiful, but the popcorn itself is incredibly stale. I'm guessing they don't do a ton of business and that the popcorn sits in the very lightly sealed bags on the shelves for a long time. That, combined with the very odd relationship between the employees (brother and sister, maybe? They certainly fought like siblings) is enough to turn me off. Wouldn't recommend.
