Riehle's Select Popping CornHulless Baby Blue Whole Grain Popcorn - (28oz) Resealable Bag

Though it tastes good, and it’s nice for variety, it pops small and more unpopped kernels. But, it doesn’t have bugs like the red did. I have read suggestions to put stuff like this in the freezer a few days first.

It actually had more hulls than I would have expected.

I use an oil kettle popper and this product had alit of unpopped kernels and what did pop turned out small and tough.

Loved the color, if you are wanting to use this for decoration it's great, but don't buy it to eat. The flavor was OK, but it just didn't pop fully. Most kernels barely popped open leaving a hard kernel that was hard as a rock. For snacking it was not a good value for the money.

This is the best popcorn on amazon, for you gourmet (small kernel) popcorn enthusiast follow these general directions for perfect results. this corn does not pop like the larger kernel "theater style" variety but its taste is far superior. BTW I have been popping Gourmet corn since the late 70's with great results.Just a quick how-to follow up for best popping results with ALL small kernel gourmet popcorn (like this product) use a "Stir Crazy" popcorn popper or equivalent, pour a 50/50 mix of vegetable oil and coconut oil in the popper and plug it in, let the oil heat preheat for at least 1.5 min pour in the popcorn, gently swirl the entire popper unit on your counter top while it stirs and pops! PERFECTO popcorn! and usually 95+% of the kernels will pop to full plump size. season with your favorite salt pepper or seasoning salts mix and don't forget to try Ranch powder.For an amazing sweet option follow the above recipe and use only coconut oil and about 50% more oil than typical, when the popcorn starts to pop toss in a 1/4-1/3 cup of regular sugar and swirl the popper aggressively to keep it from scorching and the popcorn will slowly pop and your reward is a perfectly popped batch of kettle corn like treat.hope this helps!

I reviewed this popcorn after my first try and only gave it two stars because there were so many hard (as in break your teeth) kernels left in the bottom. My second try and did something that changed my opinion - now I love this popcorn! Here's the trick. After the popping stops, keep the burner on really hot, open up half of the top of the popper (I use the whirly popper) and continue to turn the crank for about another minute. It will not burn if you continue to crank. Opening the top will allow all the steam to escape. Popping it for another minute and keeping the burner on high while you continue to turn the crank, makes the leftover kernels crunchy and delicious. Well done!

Overall I was dissatisfied with this bag of popcorn. Popcorn is my "go to" snack and I fix a bowl of it about three times a week. This Baby Blue "hulless" was intriguing. I went looking for hulless popcorn because I noticed that the last kinds of popcorn I tried left me running for a waterpik.- This popcorn still leaves a few scraps in the gums but it seems like less (honestly, I haven't kept count).- It seems to pop quickly but yields gelatinized kernels that are tough, with a cap and germ that are hard to chew.- I have experienced a lot of unpopped or partially popped kernels left in the bowl. This may be a variety to avoid if you have sensitive teeth.-The flavor is fine and fully popped kernels have a decent consistency without the styrofoamy chew that microwave popcorns may have.- I like the color and it seems natural. Popped kernels are white. (If you want colorful, popped corn try putting a little food color into your oil before popping.)I make popcorn on the stove and I have tried a variety of cooking temperatures and oils (canola, olive, corn and coconut) with similar results. My results are not scientific but I watched a re-run of "CSI" last Saturday.
