Ahhh this is weird. Slightly better than the pumpkin spice flavor, but still, too savory (cheese-puff) + sweet (brown sugar) disharmonic for my preference. Somehow normal caramel corn doesn't have this effect, it's just pure sweet/good, but there isn't enough sweet to overwhelm the cheese puff vibe here. They should use this flavoring on their tiny rice cakes instead!! Or make actual popcorn, which I would argue is also something like air. I should buy caramel corn... there must be a nut free version somewhere...stay tuned, bloggerinos...
Anyway! The flavoring in itself does taste just like caramel corn, but it is weird to have caramel corn flavored corn. And no caramel. It's like, brown sugar dusted with a bit of milk/cream powder. It is good, I guess, but a bit like alien space food. We can no longer make caramel corn, only caramel corn flavored Styrofoam. Beep boop. The future is OK, but never as good as the past.
Overall
Cost: 5/10
Taste: 6/10
