Amish Country Popcorn | Ballpark ButterSalt Popcorn Salt - 5.5 oz Bottle | Old Fashioned, Non-GMO and Gluten Free (5.5 oz Bottle)

The Amish Country Popcorn Ballpark ButterSalt is a 6 oz seasoning blend designed to give homemade popcorn that iconic movie theater taste. It’s old-fashioned, non-GMO, and gluten-free, making it a great choice for those who want a flavorful but simple seasoning. I tested it with freshly popped Amish Country popcorn to assess flavor, texture, and overall usability. Pros: ✅ Rich, buttery flavor replicates classic movie theater popcorn ✅ Finely ground salt sticks well to hot popcorn ✅ Non-GMO and gluten-free, making it accessible for most diets ✅ Versatile seasoning—great for fries, veggies, and other snacks ✅ Compact and convenient bottle for easy storage and use Cons: ❌ High salt content, so a little goes a long way ❌ Does not contain real butter, just butter flavoring ❌ Better adhesion when used with oil or melted butter Performance and Usability: This ButterSalt seasoning coats popcorn evenly, especially when added to hot, freshly popped kernels. It delivers a bold, buttery-salty taste, though using too much can make it overly salty. Since it doesn't contain real butter, pairing it with butter or oil enhances the flavor. The fine texture helps it distribute well, but dry popcorn may need a bit of moisture for the salt to adhere properly. Comparison: Compared to pre-packaged microwave popcorn, this offers better control over flavor and saltiness. It competes well with movie theater butter-flavored seasonings, like Kernel Season’s, but with a simpler ingredient list and no artificial colors. Who Is This For?: Perfect for popcorn lovers who enjoy classic buttered popcorn flavor but want more control over ingredients. Great for families, home movie nights, and those who prefer non-GMO, gluten-free seasonings. Conclusion: The Amish Country Popcorn Ballpark ButterSalt is a simple yet flavorful seasoning that brings the movie theater experience home. While it works best with oil or butter, it’s an excellent addition to any popcorn lover’s pantry.

Really good flavor no weird chemical taste and nice fine grain with no caking together

I microwave popcorn in a silicone popcorn bowl, spray the popcorn with cooking spray, and sprinkle it with the Butter Salt, and it tastes perfectly buttery and salty. It's much healthier than microwave popcorn bags, and there's no rainforest-destroying palm oil. No risk of "popcorn lung", either. I also bought a different brand of seasonings on Amazon - white cheddar, garlic parmesan, and ranch, so the Butter Salt will join the rotation.

A little goes a long way!

used along with coconut oil this makes great movie theater quality popcorn.

Taste not as strong as I was thinking it would be. I like a little bit stronger flavor, This one is mild to me, rebuying? No.

Avoid this so-called "natural" butter salt if you monitor your blood sugar. I was shocked to discover that this salt spiked my blood sugar. Despite the claims, it contains a high amount of Maltodextrin (second ingredient), which has a glycemic index higher than table sugar. The manufacturer conveniently (intentionally) hides the ingredient list until after you’ve purchased this non-returnable item, and now I know why: the second ingredient is Maltodextrin. This butter salt is essentially a yellow-dyed salt with absolutely no butter flavor—but may produce a massive glucose spike, particularly if you're diabetic or insulin resistant. "Slick" marketing, but a terrible product. With a Glycemic Index (GI) between 85 and 105+, Maltodextrin hits the bloodstream faster than pure sugar and some sources even cite it as high as 110-136, compared to table sugar (around 65) or glucose (100). This indicates that it raises blood sugar levels much faster, and to a greater extent than many other carbohydrates! Bottom line: if you are diabetic or insulin-resistant—stay away. Beyond the health risks, the product itself is underwhelming—it’s simply extremely salty salt, dyed yellow to psychologically trick your brain into thinking it tastes like butter. Save your money and your health—avoid the chemical factory and use two ingredients for your popcorn: butter and salt (fine-ground).

Its taste is okay but certainly is no substitute for separate components ( butter and salt.) I'd say we were disappointed. We use an AIR Popper ( no oil ). When the 3 minutes are up , popcorn is popped, we then add some melted butter, then the salt we add sticks better to each piece.

Cracking popcorn flavour

not sure it was good for popcorn - it does not have a distinct taste...but great as seasoning for chicken

A nice quality corns puff up well works well with my hot air popcorn maker. Popcorn is popcorn when it's popped it's the toppings that makes it i.e. butter, salt,sugar,honey, maple syrup ect ect ect

Useless product. Does not stick to popcorn whatsoever. You get your popcorn in a bowl, pour loads of this on and give the popcorn a good shake abd use your hands to mix aswell etc and you just end up with all the salt at the bottom of the bowl with none of it having stuck to the popcorn. I am unable to return this as when I try it says 'this item is not eligible for return.' Not happy.

Not a lot of butter favourite, salty
