Salted popcorn is a classic snack, perfect for a movie outing or a binge-watching session at home. But chocolate popcorn? Well, people with a sweet tooth can never resist giving a chocolatey twist to their salty popcorn. A delightful blend of sweet and salty flavours, chocolate popcorn can tantalise your taste buds, and give you an amazing taste. It can be easily made at home, but recently, a video of content creator Alona Loewen demonstrating a quirky method of preparing the snack has taken the internet by storm. In the video, Alona starts by dropping popcorn kernels on a sheet of aluminum foil. Next, she places a bar of butter on the kernels, placing a large chocolate bar on top.
She then covers the material with another sheet of aluminum foil, folds the four corners evenly and makes a small, precise hole at the top with a needle. The foil is placed on a pan and heated, with steam emerging from the holes. After some time, the foil swells, indicating that the kernels are bursting. Once the process is complete, Alona cuts the foil with a knife to reveal fresh, crunchy popcorn wrapped in gooey chocolate. TBH, with plates of hot breakfast right in front of us, hunger pangs were inevitable! Watch the full video below:

Expressing disbelief at the cooking process, one user commented, “This is not possible (fire emoji)”. “Don’t do that! Tried twice, didn’t work,” shared another. One diner suggested, “Make popcorn on the stove. Melt chocolate and drizzle over popcorn. Toss. Eat. There, fixed it.” This user wondered, “Wouldn’t that be a chocolate melted mess?” One critic decried the use of a large amount of butter and sarcastically asked, “A whole packet of butter?” “Don’t use aluminum foil in your cooking,” one person said, citing health adverse effects of aluminum use. It is poisonous. Heavy metals, once they enter the human body, do not leave it.”
