Through years of experimenting with making her own organic popcorn, flavoured with exotic seasonings inspired by her international upbringing and training at Le Cordon Bleu in London, Jean Arnold has founded 479° Popcorn, an artisan company based in San Francisco who produce high quality, handmade, organic popcorn in an abundance of wild flavours that are a foodies wet-dream. With distinctive flavours such as Alderwood Smoked Sea Salt, Black Truffle & White Cheddar, Vietnamese Cinnamon Sugar and Madras Curry Coconut & Cashews, 479° Popcorn look set to do to popcorn what Jelly Belly did for the humble jellybean.
479° Popcorn is available at a selection of foodie boutiques in the U.S., including the wonderful Dean & Deluca, and online via their own website. If you are in the United States then you are a lucky reader, if however like us you are in the UK, or for that matter anywhere outside of continental U.S. then you had better join us in bombarding 479° with requests to begin Worldwide shipping sooner rather than later. Enjoy, if you can.
