Mitten Love Mondays vol. 1

I have decided that I need to share my favorite Michigan products with the world... now let's hope that shouting from the rooftops how much I love all things Mitten doesn't mean a shortage for me when I'm low on my favorite products!

This week, in honor of St. Patrick's Day, I am featuring one of  my favorite Michigan-made treats. Wooden Crate Popcorn Company makes the BEST gourmet popcorn. Ever. Seriously.

This weekend, we got our hands on two bags; one is Irish Stout, featuring beer from one of Hubs' all time favorite Michigan breweries, Shorts in Bellaire, Michigan. I have never, ever witness him try one of their beers and NOT rave about it. Ever. He loves all of their beers that much. He's visited the brewery as well and has declared it is a must-stop on the Michigan Hops Trail. Back to the popcorn! We tried to just have a tiny sample and save the rest for later, but alas, half a bag was gone in the blink of an eye. They actually poured bottles of Uncle Steve's Irish Style Stout into the caramel coating as it was cooking. Oh my GOODNESS. We did manage to save a few pieces more than 24 hours after opening the bag, but not much.


The other bag I was gifted with was their Peanut Butter & Jealous, which is peanut butter and chocolate covered caramel corn. Those who know me know my #1 food obsession is peanut butter in any and all forms. This popcorn is amazing. That's all I'm going to say for fear that next time I want a bag, my friends that make this confectionery delight will tell me they've run out.


Check out their Etsy store here:

You will not be sorry. They ship anywhere, but if you're in the mid-Michigan area, you can stop by Appletree Lane in Owosso and pick some up for yourself (and even sample their other flavors if you are lucky enough!). Pure Michigan deliciousness!!
