Ok readers, enjoy parmesan pepper popcorn at your own risk! And stick with a little butter and salt for the kiddos.

This is probably going to come across sort of weirdly, and I hope I don’t offend you, but I felt compelled to do a tiny PSA. While popcorn with black pepper is delicious, it’s also a huge choking hazard, and I’d urge you to be really, really, really careful or maybe forego the black pepper. My husband almost choked to death last year on the same thing. What happens, I think, is the pepper can create a sort of sneezing-gasping reflex (and we LOVE pepper and ate it all the time so it wasn’t that he wasn’t used to it or anything) and because the popcorn is light, if you gasp/sneeze/whatever it can fly into your windpipe. Watching that happen was one of the worst experiences of my life. Anyway, yes, please be safe :) and I will now step off my soapbox and explore more of your lovely blog!
