A two pound bag of yellow mushroom popcorn kernels - the ball-shaped coating corn, in our lower-cost flexible bag rather than a rigid tub. Roughly sixteen stovetop batches from a quarter-cup scoop.
Ball-shaped, and why that matters
Mushroom corn pops into a dense, round, close to spherical piece. Butterfly corn pops into an irregular winged shape. Those wings are fragile, and the moment you tumble winged popcorn in hot caramel or kettle sugar they snap off and settle as sweet crumb in the bottom of the bag. A mushroom ball has nothing to snap. That is the entire reason the commercial caramel corn trade runs on mushroom corn, and the reason your homemade batches will look and hold like the ones you buy.
- Caramel corn - even coating, no shattering.
- Kettle corn - holds the sugar shell through the toss.
- Chocolate drizzle, cheese corn, candy coatings.
- Gift tins and party bowls - stays whole through handling.
For plain buttered popcorn, most people still prefer butterfly. It is more tender and its wings hold seasoning better. Mushroom is the coating corn, not the everyday eating corn.
Bag or tub
This is the same kernel we pack in 2 lb tubs, minus the rigid reclosable container. Buy the bag if you are working through it within a few weeks or will decant it. Buy the tub if it sits on a shelf for months.
Popping it
Give it room - a crowded pan stops the kernels expanding into full spheres. Two to three tablespoons of oil or tallow, heated until shimmering, a quarter cup of kernels, lid on, off the heat when popping slows.

Great product
Popped beautifully and tasted great!
They puff up just as described but lack the flavor and texture of other bag we bought
We received our first order of your mushroom popcorn. I must tell you that I'm quite disappointed. First, I would estimate that no more than half of the kernels pop to a size and appearance you show in all of your ads. In addition, there were a large number of kernels that did not pop completely, with a very hard lump inside and I also thought there were excessive hulls. So in my quest to find corn that actually appears like the advertisements Princeton Popcorn has certainly failed.

My favorite snack and a great gift for my popcorn-eating friends.
Finally, I have mushroom popcorn that actually pops into those balls of heaven that you could only get at the local fair! First batch came out of the microwave in good shape. I will soon cook some up as "kettle corn" that I've been craving...
Very good popcorn, was almost out of my other container which we truly enjoy! Love the big kernels you get from the mushroom popcorn!
Has way too many hulls and no flavor! I am very disappointed and will not buy again.
Kernals popped up huge! Loved it!
This is great popcorn! The newest mushroom variety has fewer hulls and it tastes fantastic!
Love it!
Great package outstandingly delivered exactly as advertised but it’s just not for me. Sturdy enuff for mixing caramel or what ever but to heavy for me. Excellent to TRY for me though
Mushroom popcorn is light and fluffy. It is not tough to chew. The flavor is delicious. It does not compare to any previous popcorn I have eaten. It is my favorite.
BEST POPCORN ANYWHERE. TOM
not impressed
Non GMO and American made, sign me in!
Performed and tasted as advertised. Wonderful as caramel corn.
Great quality corn kernels. . . will be ordering again
No flavor. Large hulls that cannot be avoided. Best used for kettle corn I think.
Pay attention to the directions because they make all the difference. The directions suggest a large pan or pot and some hot oil, but mention you can do it with an air popper. I have found that the air popper constricts the overall size of the kernel when it pops because it is crowded. A proper pan with a large lid, perhaps even something as large as a stock pot or a wok, makes the kernels pop to their full delicious size. I am absolutely thrilled with this product and the customer service is personal and direct and very fast. Something rare these days. This is delicious product and you will not be disappointed.
Great popcorn! Large kernels are perfect for Carmel corn and any type of topping.
The mushroom popcorn tasted really good and was definitely a large round ball but the were too many hulls. I had to remove them from each piece before I could eat them. There were more than one hull per ball! Do you make one that doesn’t have that?
