Supposedly, movie theatres use coconut oil to make their popcorn so tasty! I never knew that. I immediately whipped out our Whirley Pop and put in 3 tbsp. coconut oil plus 1/2 cup of popcorn. Soon, the smell of popcorn filled the air, and it wasn't the normal smell of when I make popcorn. Oh no, it smelled just like movie popcorn. I kid you not.
Following the guidelines of the recipe, I drizzled it with some melted butter and salt after it was popped, and then dished out bowls for myself and the boys. And you know what? It tasted just like movie popcorn. That decadent combination of salt, butter, popcorn and...coconut oil!

I never thought to make popcorn with it. I usually use it in baking or frying.
I'd drizzle it over chicken breasts and then roll in Panko crumbs to make baked chicken breasts!
