After reading some of the reviews I was a little nervous to try these... But they were great. We make them around the holidays and everyone seems to look forward to them. They only thing I did diffrent is I used butter flavored popcorn oil and I also cooked it to a soft ball instead of a hard ball because I didn't want the balls to be too crunchy.
