As Connoisseurs Corner followers know, I am a big popcorn fan.
And while I continue to love the likes of the Lesser Evil’s organic popcorns from CT, Norwood’s environmentally-friendly sorghum-based Pop I.Q., and the Oscar-worthy cinematic treats from Arena Cinelounge (who are donating proceeds to help out of work actors and others in the entertainment industry, so please support them!), I recently found a new fave from a company who knows the snack aisle well.
Having recently re-emerged after winning the lunch box wars with Pirate’s Booty, Rob Ehrlich’s new vegan venture- entitled appropriately enough Vegan Rob’s – has popped up with a new slew of popcorns that come in a variety of vegan-friendly flavors that are as good for adults as they are for kids! Some of them are so good, they do not even need corn!
From the hydroponic marvel of sea buckthorn to a variety that is made with curcimin (the active element of turmeric) to the world’s only oat butter popcorn and a minimally-processed demerara sugar variety that Rob himself calls “crazy good” (a claim with which I heartily agree!), Rob’s new case of corns offers protein and other nutrients in delicious flavors that work for almost any diet.
So keep supporting local companies and out-of-work actors, but be sure to leave room in your lunch box for the latest triumph from a man who has been shaking his booty in the snack aisle for decades.
