Bring on the butter on my popcorn.

If it isn't buttered, I can't eat it.

Did I mention I voted "Butter?"

And by the way, I hate pretzels. They're much more tasteless than popcorn. Especially BUTTERED popcorn.
I'm noticing a trend here.

I'm a big fan on white cheddar cheese covered, myself. Can't get enough.

OT:I think movie theaters have a big part of why it's as popular as it is. There are tastier snacks out there, though, so I pass popcorn up if I've got better options.

A small amount of butter and salt. But the local cinema seems to dump only salt and in near lethal amounts on their popcorn. You eat three kernels and need a kidney transplant.

So, here I am sitting all by my lonesome, browsing the 'Scapist. Not having a bite since five-thirty, I grew a bit hungry. After browsing the pantry, refrigerator, and even the freezer, I turned up snackless. But then, on the kitchen table, I spied the metal container filled with popcorn that my grandma had left earlier today. And so I found my snack.

But having been eating these delicious kernels for a few minutes, I wondered why we eat these in such massive amounts. They're relatively tasteless, they more often than not leave you thirsty, they get stuck in your teeth and back of your throat (don't you just hate that?), and they also don't really have significant nutritional value. We also have many other tastier snacks, ones that are also healthier. Pretzels, for one.

So, why do you think that we humans keep eating these things? I for one think it's because they're easy to produce and make you feel like you're eating more that you actually are. My favorite popcorn type is caramel-covered, by the way :D

EDIT: A bit late to the start, and I honestly have no idea how I forgot about it, but kettle corn has been added to the poll!
Wow, I was over my friends place with absolutely nothing to eat when I managed to spy some popcorn that even the friends mum overlooked! WE WERE OVERWHELMED WITH POPCORN GOODNESS!!! But I prefer caramel corn.

Oh god. I hate popcorn with a firey passion. It's like eating air, only the air tastes weakly of filth and leaves you greasy.

YES.

One time I got a husk stuck between my molars and neither floss nor pick could get that fucker out for the better part of 5 fucking months.

It's also annoying as hell when they settle on the very back of your tongue; you know it's there, it's annoying the shit out of you, and drinks won't wash it down. The minute you try to fish it outta there with your finger, however, you're chucking up the snack you just finished.

RAGE.

Buttered? Ew, greasy gunk. I'll go for plain ol' sugared, although caramel-covered is pretty damn tasty too.

Butter and salt.

It needs to be hot/warm also, once it gets cold it's just nasty.

That's about the only kind of popcorn I like, all of the other ones coated in flavoring crap just don't do it for me.

Well, this popcorn [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ae7Cz7wvAk] is pretty good also.

Kettle corn is hands down the best. A little sweet, a little salty. Perfect.

Oh...I just realized that sounded a little dirty.
