kiminmexico Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Does anyone know where I can buy non-microwave popcorn. I've tried WalMart, Super Lake & Casa Gourmet. No luck. Super Lake did have so-called organic popping corn for $60 for about 2 cups. No thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrod Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 The Grainery next to Gossips had some, in bulk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronopio Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Did you check the dried bean section in Walmart? Usually there in bags (like the beans). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiminmexico Posted August 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Cronopio, no, never thought to check there. Knowing Wal Mart, I wouldn't be surprised. Jrod, thanks, I'll check the Grainery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 The corn for popping in WalMart is in the section with the rice and beans, maybe three rows up from the frozen foods cooler. Soriana has it, SuperLake has it in bulk where they have the other bulk stuff. It is cheap stuff, but it works well enough. It's between 10 and 13 pesos a kilo.

Natasha Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Also used to be in Surtidor -- one in Ajijijc and one inChapala -- in the section where they have rice, beans, oatmeal, sugar, etc. in clear, plain 1 kilo bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mexicomoose Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 I too get my popcorn seeds at the Graney next to Gossips on the Carratera. You can also find coconut oil at various places, like Smallmart and other (likely better) places like Costco, and then use both for this delicious stovetop recipe... Provecho! http://bakedbree.com/perfect-stovetop-popcorn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 That is a LOT of oil. I find a tablespoon of coconut oil is plenty for 1/4 cup of popcorn, which gives me a bowl big enough for a popcorn pig like me. And sometimes extra virgin olive oil drizzled, instead of melted butter, is (I had to try it to believe it) pretty good. However, the best way to make popcorn in my world is to get yourself a Whirley Pop. This is professional-grade stuff (if there is such a thing). Nothing burns, it all pops, and it turns 10-peso popping corn from WalMart into the lightest and fluffiest there can be around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajijiccharlie Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 SuperLake always has bulk bags of popping corn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
