Popcorn has never really been a craving of mine. I think it’s because I wore braces as a kid and you’re not supposed to eat popcorn when you wear braces.
But of course, popcorn and adult beverages do tend to show up in the same places, as they did during a recent visit to the Naples Grande Beach Resort. If you haven’t visited Naples, Florida lately, it’s not the retirement community that some might remember it to be. The city is booming and the Naples Grande is a posh, modern, happening place where you can get in some serious fun and sun.
So I was at the bar sipping a Purple Haze martini with some friends and the server left us some popcorn. Not just any popcorn, mind you…she said it was white truffle popcorn. Well my foodie ears just perked right up and I decided to give it a try.
Tasty!! So much so, in fact, that we proceeded to eat three bowls of it and ask the server to show us how to make it. All you do is spray a little white truffle oil on plain old popcorn. How easy is that?!
Now that the weather is turning chilly, this will be a great treat to savor as we fend off cabin fever in front of the TV. Enjoy!

I think I’m going to try to find white Truffle Oil at my local market. You certainly made me hungry and I dont’ think I’ll feel guilty afterwards!!
You won’t regret it Lisa. White truffle oil is a little pricey but oh, so yummy!
