Popcorn Salad is Blasted On Social Media

  • Food Network got the attention it wanted. The question is whether that's a good thing. 
  • Chef Molly Yeh appeared in a Food Network video over the weekend for a popcorn salad recipe. Yes, you heard that correctly. 
  • Specifically, the dish is called  "Crunchy Snap Pea Popcorn Salad."
  • Yeh called it an "iconic Midwestern dish."
  • The recipe includes snap peas, celery, carrots, shallots, and popcorn. Don't forget the mayonnaise-based dressing. 
  • ROLL THE COMMENTS!
  • "Am I the only one who has lived their entire life in the mid-west and have never seen a popcorn salad? I guess I shouldn't knock it until I try it but is this an actual staple recipe and from where?!"
  •  "That's it! Take away her food handlers card. Anyone making this monstrosity is not ready for the responsibility of preparing real food or making sure it's safe for human consumption." 
  • "Food Network is just trolling us at this point right?" 
  • And also, "Soggy popcorn, delicious!' - Said no one ever!"
