Last night... I had the yummiest popcorn...TMPletz was tellin me about making some parmesian cheese popcorn and of course I needed to try that...I added a lil twist to his version and added fresh garlic in the butter before I melted it and poured it over then added the cheese instead of salt...my gawd was it yummy  I love popcorn and Im always looking for yummy things to do with it...popcorn is an easy quick meal at work...tell me things you do to popcorn to give it some zip or just to switch it up a bit. Or if you have some other easy snacks that are yummy lemme know!  | |

Fresh garlic?
Surely you mean garlic powder.  | |

Surely you mean garlic powder. Nope...I crushed fresh garlic into the butter and melted it...just like making butter for dipping crab or lobster in. It was really yummy. | |

My favorite condiment to add to anything these days is spicy peanut sauce. I use it making pasta, add to sandwiches and I've even had it on french fries.
But my favorite is to take a tortilla and spread it with a thin layer of cream cheese, then add cucumber, a bit of onion, red pepper and carrots and rolling it all up and dipping it in the spicy peanut sauce. I'm in heaven. |

I usually just crush, then dice mine. |

Or get one of those that has the little device that you just press into the opening to automatically clean it, voila. But keep your crushed diced garlic the HELL off this thread!! | |

It's not that I don't clean it properly, it's just that they never seem to work all that well. And I've had 2 different ones. Must I go through press after press till I find the right one? Especially when knives work just as well?? |

I've often thought about adding garlic, but I didn't want it to be overpowering which it must not have been for you. I'll have to try that! | |

Unless you're buying them out of the trunk of someone's car, they all work just fine!! They are the most simple and beautiful device created by humans. It is IMPOSSIBLE to use them wrong! Even YOU!!! | |
