Since popcorn is a snack enjoyed by young and old alike, why not reward yourself by using your home popcorn machine to make a profit. Modern movie goers believe that popcorn has always been sold at the cinema. Actually, street vendors originally sold this treat before theaters made it available to the public.
Popcorn is a healthier alternative to candy, potato chips, and other snacks. This treat is high in fiber, has no sugar and sodium unless added by hand, and is low in calories and fat. It is an economical food that does not cost much to purchase; that is why it was a favorite snack during the depression era of the 1930s in the United States.
There are many styles of poppers available for this business venture. Smaller replicas of theater style machines with a kettle to pop the popcorn can be placed on a popcorn cart for easy mobility. This also gives the appearance of an old-time street vendor. Larger air popped units do not require oil to pop the kernels. The business person may spend a little more for a machine for commercial use, but that investment will be reimbursed plus more in no time at all.
The only supplies needed are the popper, oil and salt if necessary, and decorative containers for the popped product. The home popcorn machine can be set up at school or church functions, fundraisers, clubs, charity events, carnivals, flea markets, and festivals. Imagine not just selling plain popcorn, but flavored and colored popcorn as well. Popcorn balls with nuts and caramel or flavored popcorn in eye-catching containers or old-time theater bags can be sold. Offering popcorn to match the holidays is a novel idea such as red, white, and blue popcorn for July 4th, red and green popcorn for Christmas, green popcorn for St. Patrick’s Day, and red popcorn for Valentine’s Day. Flavors matching the colors include chocolate, vanilla, peanut butter, strawberry, lemon, apple, blueberry, cherry, and grape just to name a few. Even flavors of cheddar cheese, spicy, ranch, cinnamon, and sour cream are neat flavors to try.
At this slow economic time, many people are turning to what they know or enjoy best in life to share with others and at the same time provide for their family financially. Using the home popcorn machine is one delicious and fun way to get the bills paid and never go hungry.
