📎 AI Summary:
The thread is about identifying the “secret” flavor in a Whirly-Pop Theater Time popcorn kit packet, where one user found the included powder’s flavor was hard to replicate and suspects there are additional ingredients beyond just popcorn and coconut oil. The main question is what that butter-colored powder actually contains and how others can reproduce the distinctive taste. The initial tone is curious and speculative, with the user experimenting (e.g., adding garlic granules) but not yet matching the original flavor, implying people may have tips or ingredient breakdowns to share.

I recently bought a Whirly-Pop, which came with a Theater Time popcorn kit, which I used while awaiting for another order of popcorn and coconut oil. The kit was in three parts...popcorn, coconut oil and a butter colored powder, which I assume it was. That first batch had a flavor that I have yet been able to reproduce, which means that something more was in the packet than I guessed.

I'm in the process of experimenting, but haven't come close yet, but so far all that I've tried adding in Garlic granules. Whatever the missing ingredient(s), it makes one crave a soda to wash it down, which would obviously be of benefit to theater snackbar sales. Since I know that I'm not the only one that likes popcorn of this kind, someone must know the secret...what is it?
