I had a girls night in popcorn and movie night. I made this salad. It got rave reviews, even thought everyone was very suspicious. I made mine with ranch dressing instead of the mayonaise, and omitted the waterchestnuts. It was great!!!! You've seriously have got to try it!!!

This was delicious, surprisingly! My husband is very critical about food and he loved it. He even repeated his compliment several times that night. We took this to a neighbors cookout and everyone loved it and asked for the recipe. I followed the recipe with the exception of the chives (didn't have any). I also was very skeptical at first b/c the mixture without the popcorn didn't look too appetizing, but once the pc was added and the bacon and cheese was added on top, you really couldn't tell that there was popcorn in it. I will definitely make this again and maybe add some red onions to it. Thank You.

My family didn't like this. I followed the recipe exactly, however it might have been better without the water chestnuts. I won't try it again though.

Was nervous taking this to a salad luncheon at church, but everyone loved it. I mixed everything together except for the popcorn then stirred that in at the very last, then sprinkled on extra bacon and cheese right before serving. When I went back for seconds, the popcorn had gotten soggy. It was a hit and I will make it again.

This was great!! Took it to a party and it was a hit. Easy to make and different.

After seeing this recipe, I knew I HAD to try it. Even though there was something addicting about this "salad", I do not plan on making again with popcorn. I think we'll stick to pasta.. Thanks for the very interesting recipe, though...

I made this salad for our church potluck, everyone liked it, It didn't seem moist enough, but was very good. thank you for shareing.

I made this for my family as it seemed it would be a different and fun salad. We were not inpressed, sorry! It tasted like a usual, veggie salad to us and I followed the directions exactly. I couldn't taste the popcorn and it all but dissapeared under the dressing. I don't think I'll try this again but I did have high hopes for it!

Not our favorite! I might have liked it a bit better if i used Miracle Whip. I like bacon, cheese, water chestnuts and popcorn but not together in a salad. The verdict was that it was interesting to try and we'll never make it again.

Not a hit with either the kids or adults. We are a house of adventurous eaters, and major lovers of homemade popcorn - but this one misses the mark. Will not mke this one again.

I served this salad to 6 of my family members and we all hated it. Not at all for us!

What a fun salad! Very skeptical at first but was totally surprised! I used hot air popcorn. Since this is rather rich tasting, you wouldn't want any extra salt or butter. I will make definately make again.

This is great. I had to leave off the water chestnuts since I am allergic and have had to use Bac'os once but it was still a big hit. I also alter the types of cheeses so that it has a more exotic flavor. It is always the first things to go and the conversation piece. JUST MAKE SURE YOU REMOVE ALL THE KERNALS!!!!

Awesome salad. My family and friends just loved it. Thanks for sharing!

Very good! I brought it to a family reunion and thought no one would eat it because who heard of popcorn in a salad? But everyone liked it and it was gone so fast!!

I made this salad for my daughter's graduation party, and it was the hit of the banquet table! Everyone wanted the recipe, and I even received calls long after the party asking for the recipe. The popcorn makes it very different, and it is delicious.
