Popcorn has always been one of those distinctly American things that I’ve never understood why people love so much…like chimineas and samoas, all very meh to me. This past year I have had some distinct culinary changes; I like green olives, I seem to have more of a sweet tooth, I cant eat tofu anymore (makes me so sad) and last but not least, I kind of get the whole popcorn thing…it’s due to this amazing Jamaican restaurant in Atlanta, amongst delicious vegan mac, the absolute best pumpkin curry and peas and rice, they serve they serve this addictive popcorn. It’s a delicious mix of spicy-salty-curry SO GOOD. We set about trying to replicate it for a party and it was a hit. I hope you love it as much as I do and it will help with some not-too-guilty snacking!
