"I have long believed that good food, good eating is all about risk. Whether we're talking about unpasteurized Stilton, raw oysters or working for organized crime 'associates,' food, for me, has always been an adventure."--Anthony Bourdain

Remove from heat and quickly stir in vanilla and soda, stir, this will foam up and when you have stirred up until same color, gradually pour over the popcorn. Stir popcorn until evenly coated .

Personal Notes:
I went to a cooking class at Sur La Tab in Kirkland, in the late 90's, Great cook, I love many of her recipes. This though, I make every xmas and share with family and friends, Of course I spend a weekend making many batches and I order the nuts from Sunnyland farms, 12 lbs. Heavenly mix it is called.
