I'm wanting to make my popcorn healthier by not loading it down with salt and butter. My friend says she puts yeast on hers and it is really good. I am just curious if anyone else has ever heard of this. It sounds so gross.

blogyourself I know what you mean about the summer. We have a ton of farmers markets around here so I am always stocked up on fresh foods. I try to stay away from fruit juice b/c it isn't usually 100% fruit.
