Popcorn is great on its own, but for the more adventurous among us, there are several other things popcorn can be mixed with in order to create some interesting– in a good way– flavors.

As a snack, popcorn seems to go well with various little candies, including Skittles, M&Ms, Reese’s Pieces, Raisinets, Junior Mints, Sour Patch Kids, and other items you’d typically find at a movie theater candy counter. You can buy candy bars like Kit Kats or Hershey’s chocolate bars and combine those with popcorn, too.

Do you have any caramel sauce or marshmallow fluff in your pantry or fridge? If so, try mixing those things with popcorn.

If you want to try eating potato chips and popcorn at the same time, do it! Flavored chips can give your mouth some really amazing sensations. Why not throw in some chocolate chips and see how you like that, too?

For those who like cheese, try adding some parmesan cheese to warm popcorn; it’ll stick better if the popcorn is warm. Garlic powder is also something to sprinkle on top of popcorn if you like the taste of garlic. Fans of lemon can add lemon salt to their popcorn.

Though this may sound odd, it has been said that dill pickles go really well with popcorn, so it’s worth a try– you might like it.

When you want to experiment with popcorn combinations, black pepper and truffle oil has potential, as does dried cranberries and white chocolate. Or you can add olive oil and some lime juice.

What other foods should be “put out” at parties for people to eat, when popcorn is available? Well, pretzels, chips, crackers and Doritos are all good. Just to make things different, consider putting all of those together, mixed in one big bowl. It’ll surely get guests talking– and eating!
