Kettle Corn

Kettle corn at the Farmer's Market Kettle corn is heaven in a bag: popcorn popped in a large kettle with sugar and kept constantly moving so that the sugar melts and ever so slightly caramelizes over the popped kernel. No butter is added and therefore it is lower in fat than regular popcorn. It has a slightly sweet and slightly salty flavor, much lighter than caramel corn.

Quite possibly the most delicious substance known to mankind. It can be found at the Kettle Pop booth at the Farmers Market made fresh in a big "cauldron" right at the Farmers' Market. Samples are freely available in dispensers at the table.

It can also be found at Century Theatres in Sacramento. Try adding M&Ms for a sweet, salty and chocolate cinema experience.

This past Saturday my younger son burst into tears when they told us they were done selling popcorn for the day at 12:45. When I asked why they close earlier than all the other booths on in the market, I was told by the guy — a new guy, I should add— while he was eating a burrito, standing over the big, cold kettle, "Because it's Saturday." I suppose that was a good reason. —DrandyJones
