Default Popcorn

Popcorn is America's favorite snack. Although bananas are the number one item purchased in a grocery store, the shelf space for popcorn is generally much larger than the space allotted for bananas in most grocery stores. Of the popcorn shelf space, most of that shelf space goes to microwave popcorn. Unfortunately, microwave popcorn is a known carcinogen and should be avoided for health reasons. Orville Redenbacher's is the known brand of home-popped popcorn. A 30 oz.jar of Orville Redenbacher's at Winn-Dixie sells for $5.99, or 20 cents an ounce. A 45 oz. jar of Orville Redenbacher's at Walmart sells for $4.98, or 9 cents an ounce--that's more than half of Winn-Dixie's price. A frugal popcorn lover would not buy their Orville Redenbacher's at Winn-Dixie.
