"A man who was fond of wine was offered some grapes at dessert after dinner. "Much obliged," said he, pushing the plate aside; "I am not accustomed to take my wine in pills."--Jean Antheleme Brillat-Savarin, The Physiology of Taste

Ingredients:  
Popped Corn ( 4-5 batches air popped or 2-3 batches with stove popper) 2 dishpans full

Sauce:
1 cup butter
1&1/3 cup white sugar
1/2 cup white Karo syrup
1 tsp vanilla
dash salt
Directions:
Directions:
Pop the corn until Lyn's big tin bowl is full or about the size of 2 dish pans.

In heavy saucepan, melt butter with sugar, and Karo syrup. Boil, stirring occasionally until mix reaches soft ball stage (240º)
Take off heat immediately and stir in dash salt and vanilla.

Pour over popcorn and mix until blended in well. Store in covered containers if any is left.

Original recipe is Ruth Reidle's Fiddle Faddle! So good too!!! The recipe called for 3-4 quarts of popped corn and 1 cup peanuts mixed with the cooked sauce and once mixed was placed on cookie sheets to dry and then place in covered containers. We just tend to like more popcorn and less sweet sauce.

If no candy thermometer- use R's method of adding 1/2 tsp sauce to cold water periodically until sauce mixture holds together in soft ball. If it gets too hard you will have popcorn balls!
