Englewood, Colorado

I served this cold, at a picnic. I wasn't sure if beets were good picnic fare, but 3 people asked for the recipe. And it was really tasty.

It's real good. Less beans needed.

Excellent recipe! This is the second time I have made it...the first time, it turned out grainy, as one review mentioned. After thinking about it, it turns out that I just dumped all of the caramel ingredients into the pan all at once (except for the vanilla). I think it's the baking soda that makes the difference. Looks like when I put it in before boiling the caramel, the caramel corn ends up looking grainy (though believe me, it didn't stop us from eating it!) This time, I put it in as instructed by the recipe (hmm, maybe I should read it more closely!) The caramel corn came out completely non-grainy. The cost of the ingredients didn't seem to make a difference at all. Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got some caramel corn to tend to...
