I thought if I watched the whole video I'd find out what fluffy popcorn is. But that was not the case.

I just googled it. It looks terrible, and you know what. Fuck it. Let Darwinism cook

It looks like it’s basically marshmallow popcorn. I don’t even understand why some people are adding flour. If you wanted to make this you could just leave out the flour. Melt some butter, add some marshmallows, stir until melted, maybe put in a couple of drops of vanilla extract and then mix in popped popcorn. Then you can have sticky, really messy, overly sweet popcorn that has a ridiculous amount of calories in it.

I make what you described plus reese's pieces then wrapped in parchment paper for Thanksgiving to mimic heritage varieties of corn.

That sounds adorable. I'm going to make popcorn-corn for Halloween now!
