Chicago Mix Popcorn provides a dynamic and delightful experience blending sweet and savory flavors into one snack.
The Chicago Mix, also known as Garrett Mix (named after Garrett Popcorn Shops), uniquely combines the sweetness of caramel popcorn with the savory, cheesy richness of cheddar cheese popcorn. The caramel popcorn is coated in a crisp, buttery caramel, offering a sugary sweetness. The cheese popcorn is coated with a sharp cheddar cheese powder or sauce, providing a salty, cheesy counterpoint. This juxtaposition is the key to the snack's appeal.

Popcorn Quality
Start with high-quality popcorn kernels for the best texture and flavor. Air-popped popcorn generally provides a cleaner flavor base.
Caramel Coating Consistency
Ensure the caramel coating is evenly distributed on the popcorn, preventing clumping and ensuring a consistent sweet taste. A thin, even coat is ideal.
Cheese Powder Application
Use a fine cheese powder for better adhesion to the popcorn. Toss the popcorn gently while adding the cheese powder to ensure even coverage and prevent clumping.
Balance is Key
Experiment with the ratio of caramel to cheese popcorn to find your perfect balance of sweet and savory. A 50/50 mix is common, but adjust to your liking.
