Friends, I have some good news.  Some of you may have already had this.
 Some of you know that I am a Civil War reenactor.  While out at our
training weekend in Ohio, I gave away several bottles of my FRED hot
sauce and was well received.  A friend of ours, who was also our host
for the weekend, insisted on giving me some jalapeno microwave popcorn
that his father grows, packages, and sells all on his own in Iowa.

The popcorn is called Pudenz Popcorn.  I think they sell both microwave
and regular popcorn.  But, what I got was the microwave jalapeno
popcorn.

This is ALL natural.  He uses jalaeno flakes.  His ingredients say
jalapeno flavor.  But, I'm doubtful it's artificial.  Most stuff with
jalapeno flavor turns green or is some weird color.  When this popcon
pops, it has just some speckling of green here and there.  I was amazed
at how subtle but GOOD this was.  I don't think it was intended to be
overly hot, but subtle with the jalapeno.  You taste the jalapeno and
there's some heat, but it's a good balance!

I wish I could tell you guys where to find this stuff.  Supposedly it
can be found in some grocery stores in Iowa and in some farm markets
here and there.

I already consumed my three bags of popcorn.  I gotta have more!  ;-)

Anyway, good popcorn, not overly hot, tastes good, well balanced with
flavor.

Ted
