Hilo, Hawaii

These were really good if you do them right. I was unsure how long to boil because they floated up instantly. I also needed to add more yeast and increase bake time. I sprinkled a cinnamon sugar mixture over the top and they came out pretty good but not as thick as i'd like. I'll keep searching for an easier recipe, if there is such a thing :)

Probably one of the unhealthiest things I have ever eaten, but it is good!

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...
