Four pounds total: one 2 lb tub of white butterfly hulless kernels and one 2 lb tub of yellow mushroom kernels. Both varieties, in the sizes most kitchens actually use, in one order.

The point of buying both

Butterfly and mushroom are not grades of the same thing - they are different tools, and using the wrong one is the most common popcorn mistake we see.

  • Butterfly pops into an irregular winged shape with maximum surface area. That is what holds melted butter, salt and fine seasoning. It is the movie-night corn, and it is more tender to eat.
  • Mushroom pops into a dense round ball with nothing fragile sticking out. That is what survives being tumbled in caramel, kettle sugar, chocolate or cheese without shattering into crumb.

Anyone who both eats popcorn plain and makes caramel corn at the holidays needs both jars on the shelf. This is the least expensive way to find out which one you reach for more.

Also a good gift

Two tubs, two clearly different products, with an obvious story to tell about the difference. It gives someone a reason to actually cook rather than just snack, and it works for a housewarming, a host gift, or anyone who has been buying microwave bags out of habit.

Popping notes

Both like the same method: two to three tablespoons of oil or beef tallow, heated until it shimmers, a quarter cup of kernels, lid on, off the heat when popping slows. Give the mushroom corn a little more room in the pan - it needs the space to expand into a full sphere.

The mushroom popcorn had great kernels, popped large and tasted delicious, but it was absolutely full of hulls. My Orville Redinbocker generally pops as good as the mushroom popcorn and with no where near the hulls in it.
The small kernel hulless popcorn popped good, had good flavor and reasonably hull free.

Expensive but worthwhile.

The product costs more than store brands, but we're making an effort to shop small businesses whenever possible, which is how we came across this popcorn. We've made a batch every night since we got it--it's really great!

Great Popcorn

My friend introduced me to this. I really love white corn, he said the mushroom was the best. I love the white corn better, but the yellow or mushroom is good, a little hully but both have good flavor.

Popcorn Rave

We enjoy a large bowl of popcorn occasionally as we binge watch Midsomer Murders. With Princeton, we don't miss a single clue looking for unpopped kernels. Thank you, Farmer Bob!

Never again

Let me first say that, I am from the Midwest (Nebraska) and I know about popcorn, my siblings and I had to shuck popcorn when we were young., lots of blisters. But I'm far from being an expert
So any way what I was trying to get at was that I had a horrible experience with your popcorn. This last Friday night I decided to pop up a batch and sit and watch TV. Very little popped and what did pop was not mushroom, it was hard as a rock and hardly edible. I'm disappointed, I was really looking forward to that feeling of home. I'm trying to add a picture but I don't know what I'm doing wrong because I can't get it to load right .Anyway I'm not satisfied and won't be buying again.

Popcorn

I haven’t tried the white one yet. I was disappointed in the mushroom. Taste was fantastic. However, the hull’s were very numerous. So much so that eating the popcorn was work. Having to stop and remove hulls from my mouth was a lot of trouble. It popped up nice. Most of it popped. Sorry I can’t help you out.

A work in progress.

I have only done one pop so far, but the first pop was not very successful. While the flavor of the popped corn was good, we had a lot of half popped kernels and hard edges in general. Hoping it goes better next time.

Previously purchased the Mushroom popcorn

Previously purchased the Mushroom popcorn and enjoyed it. First purchase of the white popcorn which popped okay but seemed like the kernels when popped were pretty small. Would not repurchase that.

Disappointed

I've seen this advertised so I decided to order the combo. I read the instructions to pop. I popped the mushroom kind in oil, only about 90% popped lot of hauls. So next time I popped it in a hot air popper. Almost all popped. However, it had so many hauls i couldn't eat it. I'm disappointed, I'm just have to go back and buy store popcorn.

Happy First Time Buyer

The mushroom popcorn puffs are very large, pretty yellow and delicious! The butterfly popcorn is extra white and tastes very good. Very few unpopped kernels of both kinds.

Mixed Response from Popcorn Lovers

I ordered both the butterfly and mushroom types of popcorn. I made both for my friends last night, who normally rave over my popcorn, mixing them together in the bowl. The mushroom was their favorite by a large margin. The butterfly kernels were quite small and looked "out-matched" by the mushroom kernels. For our next event, I'll fix two separate bowl to see how they measure up.

Loved the mushroom. The butterfly pops very small and is not as gratifyingly too eat. Almost all kernels of both varieties pop so there is little waste. Expensive alternative to Redenbacher’s but I like the mushroom a lot and will probably reorder it.

The butterfly was edible, but

The butterfly was edible, but the mushroom was some of the worst I’ve ever had. A big waste of time and money spending $57 for that never again.

okay, but not magical.

Made one batch each of Mushroom and Butterfly.
The mushroom was made with Vegetable oil and the butterfly with Avocado oil.
Butterfly had maybe 3 unpopped kernels and virtually no hulls. It was however, very small.
The mushroom didn't seem to pop as well. Lots of unpopped kernels and loaded with hulls. Also had a toughness to the final product.
As a long time Orville fan, I was not impressed with the initial sampling.
I will definitely try both several more times just in case operator errors to blame.
Stay tuned!

mixed review

The mushroom shape was not enjoyable due to the large and tough husks.
The butterfly was wonderful, greatly enjoyed.

Absolutely delicious popcorn like you’ve never tasted before!

This popcorn is the real deal! My house smells amazing every time I pop it! I make a big batch, hand out, individual size bowls, and each person gets to choose their seasoning! It’s the only way we do movie night now!

2lb Tub Yellow Mushroom Popcorn Kernels

"Poor popping results, half managed to come to full size, the others, some to none being popped. In addition, felt like chewing a bagel, corn rendering too thick unlike butterfly popping corn. No repeat purchase here."
