**UPDATE** Since posting this video, we have discovered that Pop Zest recently changed their recipes. Unlike the packages we have in our pantry, all three varieties now list either extra virgin olive oil or sunflower oil as their final ingredient. The packages in our pantry also list a variety of tree nuts as ingredients, but those are not included in the newer versions. Please read any labels carefully before purchasing if you have any specific restrictions / allergies!
Brian LOVES going to movies, and his favorite part used to be getting a nice, giant tub of popcorn. Unfortunately, movie theater popcorn is full of oil, butter, salt and who knows what else, so it is off limits for us on our whole food, plant-based diet.
A few weeks ago, we finally made it to the theater to see Detective Pikachu. It was so good! Afterwards, Brian wanted some popcorn, so we went home and got our air popper out. It can be tricky to make oil-free popcorn taste delicious, but Brian has been experimenting with different methods and seasoning mixes over the past year, so we thought we’d share his findings!

Krocks In The Kitchen for a dessert version toss w peanut (or almond) butter & honey
have ya'll tried using curry powder?
Krocks In The Kitchen sometimes I like Franks Red Hot sprayed on!
what about a chili lime? or a dill flavor?
I use mashed up avocado to stick my nootch seasoning mix to my popcorn. So good!
My parrot gets soooo excited when she hears the popcorn popper. She always gets three (cooled, unseasoned) pieces of popcorn when I make myself a bowl.
Nutritional yeast is my favorite popcorn seasoning. Sometimes I'll do paprika, garlic, and nutritional yeast, but just plain nutritional yeast is amazing on its own.

I'll stick to the chili cheese mix!
What a shame. like you I bought some in December and it is made without oil. Looks like a way to make it more cost effective to manufacture.
Check out “flavorgod” seasonings! Would love a review video
Cute hair Jessica!
Thanks Patti! :)
Looks so full now!!! 💕
Back in the 70's,80's my sister would make popcorn at home to her liking and sneak it into the movies!!!
We make popcorn when we go to the drive in theater near us. It's a great night out! 😀
I love my air popper & I always put nutritional yeast in it. It never occurred to me to grind it up. That’s a great tip.
It helps a lot!!
This is easily the greatest recipe ever conceived. Not only that, but it is executed with cunning and guile. Ain't no stopping us now.
I spray fresh lemon juice and chill seasoning or Mrs dash .
This spice mixture looks delish! Will make it soon. I put dill pickle juice in a mini spray bottle and keep it in the fridge for spraying on popcorn. It doesn't taste like pickles on the popcorn, but it definitely helps hold a spice mix. 🥒
We need to try the pickle juice for sure!!
Yup, me, too! I think I heard this one from Hannah and Derek Howlett. Does make everything super sticky, but very tasty. Chili cheez sounds like a must try and I am intrigued by the Braggs spray bottle!! ❤️
@MrsPlant - I love seeing your positive comments sprinkled throughout the vegan YT community!!
Pickle juice is a fabulous idea!
Thank you, Brian, for doing all the testing to come up with your Krock popcorn topper! There is a lot of thought that goes into these videos, and I really appreciate that.
I love your quirky and through approach to new flavours and recipes, and that your so supportive of each other! High five indeed !
This popcorn was amazing!! Made it yesterday and today and it’s going to be my new favorite evening snack! Thank you!
I love your channel, guys! Everything about it! I love watching your following grow! Thank you for sharing your journey and all your wonderful food recipes and thoughts! Keep up the good work!
Another way to make oil-free popcorn is to use a large microwave safe glass bowl, add popcorn kernels, cover with plate and set microwave for 4 min. I have found that I need to heat the glass bowl first before making the popcorn. I love it this way.
I have been whole food plant-based for about four years now and this is hands down the best popcorn I ever had tonight, all thanks to you. Thank you for sharing this delicious recipe.
Omg - you guys are so so cute! Love the intro! I am addicted to popcorn (which I usually don't eat), but I'm SUPER excited to try your recipe. Yayyyyyyy! :D
Ooooh, I like your new haircut! Also, like the tip about using liquid smoke in the spray. Love that stuff.
Love your hair, Jessica! And cute way to debut it. (Wish he was more overt in his admiration. One of the sweetest video moments I remember with you two was where he said he couldn't believe his good luck in having you. Mutual gratitude in a relationship - even with the good-natured ribbing along the way - is so inspiring.)
I spray my popcorn with some juice from a can of black olives. It's a nice rich flavor with some saltiness, love it.
I love the idea about spraying the Braggs. You both look fantastic! I use a chili nooch combo for my popcorn.
Thank you so much for this recipe, I love it!
I make a knock off to Lil Lads Herbal popcorn which is sold at Whole Foods. I am not sure if its just a New England product. Its the most addictive substance I have ever eaten. My knock off seasoning is roughly (as I don't measure) , 1/2 cup nooch, 1/2t onion powder, 1/4t garlic powder, 1/4t citric acid powder OR 1/2t lemon juice powder, 1/4 t salt, 1/4 t paprika and 1T dried dill weed whirred in a small food processor or spice mill. I actually make this in large batches to sprinkle on foods that need just a little something else. I look forward to trying your blend. I imagine it must have a sort of nacho cheese vibe.
Edited to add...You both look awesome. I swear you are thinner each video. Jessica the thing I notice the most is how wonderful your skin looks now...glowing!
I love you guys! Thank you so much for this recipe
Excellent recipe! I've been using powdered salt on dry popcorn but I'm excited to try this one.
going to have to try this - I miss popcorn. thanks for sharing
Thank you so much for this
Love the haircut, Jessica! I rarely eat popcorn because I don't have an air popper, but I am thinking about getting one and will definitely try the chili cheez recipe. Normally, I just like my popcorn plain because I am just weird that way, but I do like an italian based mix, just haven't found one that I really like yet, so I might have to do some experiments on my own. Thanks guys! You two Krocks rock!
I have been making my popcorn with coconut oil (which I know you can’t have) and sea salt that I bland to a fine powder in my coffee grinder. I’ve never thought of putting nutrition yeast in the grinder. Good idea! I’ll have to get out my air popcorn popper and give it a try with the aminos! Thanks and keep coming up with new videos for us. You guys are fun!
Just made this, thanks!! Very tasty and a perfect blend of seasonings. 👍👍
just made this to go on my popcorn. Yummm!!!
I love air popped popcorn and always eat it plain and warm. I prefer it that way.
Great spice mix, Krocks! I usually use dry garlic & nutritional yeast since I don’t use oil or butter. When I’m in the mood for spicy popcorn, I generously shake my favorite Garam Masala on fresh popped corn. It is really good! 😋🍿
You guys are great!!
You guys are amazing funny entertaining and informative and helping me with my plant-based diet. God bless you.
I use lime and Tajin!!!! So yummy!!!
What is Tajin?
Thanks Guys!! love popcorn so this will make me love it more. Your videos are so enjoyable!!!!
Thank you ❤️
Sounds yummy! Right now my favorite is Mrs. Dash Lime Chili seasoning on popcorn. When you're done your lips burn which is as it should be. 😋
One of my favorite UA-cam shows if not my all time favorite.
Your spice mixture sounds awesome! I use nutritional yeast and dill. I have never ground it up but find I can make it stick by sprinkling some on THEN spraying a bit of Braggs, toss and repeat until its coated. But I am def going to try grinding it next time!
I will order that PopZest for stocking stuffers! GREAT idea! Thanks for sharing!!!
Thanks to another viewer for pointing this out - they changed their recipes from the last time we ordered it. All three varieties now list either extra virgin olive oil or sunflower oil as the very last ingredient. The ones we have are an older recipe! Just wanted to point that out in case! We will probably still use it because the amount of oil has to be very minimal...
I don't eat much popcorn now but I used to put the little scoop of the air popper at the top of the air popper with some vegan butter in it and then pour it over. Yum!
Love your videos! I’m kind of obsessed right now with curry popcorn. I’ve just been using a commercial curry mix I like, but your recipes has inspired me to pulverize some unsweetened coconut with the curry powder and use that on the popcorn. I’ll get back to you on the result. Cheers!
Brian thank you, I'm trying the recipe tonight!
I did not believe it possible for anyone not to LOVE movie popcorn and that smell! Who knew?!?! Can't wait to try this much healthier option!
My first job was a movie theater. That popcorn smell just triggers fond memories with me. Jessica doesn't like the smell though. 😀
-Brian
I made the seasoning for my husband and his popcorn but I used it on my homemade potato chips! It was delicious!
The last 15-20 years however long this season has been out it is Everglades Seasoning it's in a white and green container. Old Bay Seasoning is really good if you like spicy!.. I also like Nutritional Yeast and Parma Vegan Parmesan Garlicky Green... I like all four of these Seasoning individually or some of them together, on potatoes, rice, green beans, all kinds of things!! Whenever I want a little kick on something that's my go-to's....I really enjoy your videos thanks for sharing your recipe can't wait to try it out chili and cheez that would be a nice change!! ✌️💕🤗
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR YUMMY DELICIOUS RECIPE AND TIPS AND INFORMATION YOU 2 ARE FABULOUS
Plain popcorn rocks for me. Enjoyed the video.
Excellent and easy to put together spice mix! I love making my own chili-lime seasoning and putting it on fresh fruit and veggies, but you inspired me to try it on popcorn as well. I'd spray my popcorn with some homemade canna oil
Love the hair and all the kitchen gadgets !
Great video! Love the new hair, Jessica! Looks fabulous!!!
You two are the cutest couple ever! Jessica, your new haircut looks so good on you! Love it! I like putting Tapatio on my popcorn! Yum.
My 'famous' popcorn recipe is olive oil, garlic powder and hippy dust (nut. yeast). But this recipe lookks great! I have not been able to figure out how to get the flavor dust to stick without oil so I will try this out. Love your channel!!
I'm so gonna make this! Great recipe Brian love me some popcorn. I love your hair Jessica it is so flattering on you!
Let us know how it turns out! 😀
-Brian
Very creative!
Love this format. Hope to see more vlog real life stuff mixed in with your videos.
It is nice to get out of the house every once in a while! 😀
Appreciate your videos! I went vegan at age 56...2plus years ago. I thank you for keeping your material family friendly!
Thank you very much! We will always keep our stuff family friendly! 😀
1 week potato diet, 1 week mostly vegan (I ate some fish and have milk in my tea/coffee once a day). I've lost 5KG/11lb so far. Most of it was the first week. Now it is slow and steady. I'm eating two meals a day between 12 and 6pm. One is home made veg soup. The other a medley of random stuff like riced veg, grains, beans, mushrooms, spinach, garlic, shallots, sun dried tomato etc. I already feel more comfortable in my clothes and I'm never bloated. I'm letting my self have some sugar or red meat every other weekend as I go forward. It was my son's birthday so I had a small slice of cake this weekend. I ate it very slowly :) This diet is definitely sustainable.
Awesome to hear! 😀 There is nothing wrong with having something special for special occasions.😀
-Brian
I use the Pop Zest..love them!
Ah... Oh I am going to make this popcorn right now. Thankyou.
Thanks for sharing, will try it soon :) I like Tapatio hot sauce and lime juice.
Yum... Excellent! chili cheese mix is something I will try.
made the seasoning, it is awesome!!!
You guys are awesome!
Thanks!! 🙂
The hair looks great! As for popcorn, I like curry powder or harissa spice blend. I've sprayed it with balsamic, pickle juice and ACV. I still like a little olive oil though, I'm a travesty.
I love pop corn. I need to try this.
This message is from Brian’s girlfriend Margret. We’ve been following you guys for a couple months now and enjoy your content very much! Thanks so much for this recipe! Your hair looks so cute Jessica!
We tried your spice mix, so tasty! We like to add a little citric acid to our popcorn mix to make it just a little brighter. We also added just a touch of cayenne to make it a little hotter. We sometime make one with black pepper and citric acid which is super tasty, which tastes kind of like salt and pepper. Or we’ve made one with curry powder, I bet that would be good with nutritional yeast too.
Sounds great----Thanks, guys!! :)
The pikachu is so cute!
Cool idea for popcorn! And Jessica, super cute cut! 💕👍
Very tasty!
Love the hair! And now I want an airpopper.
Aqua fava(the extra liquid from making beans) can also be used as a liquid and no salt. Also note my sister worked at a movie theater and she said they had to wear special gloves to wash down the popcorn machine because the oil and whatever was on the popcorn will cause chemical burns! Think of that if you’re ever tempted to eat it...
Thanks for sharing. Has anyone ever mentioned he has the best TV, Radio voice?
Thank you very much! 😀 I actually am an audio producer and I do some voice over work for my job. 😀
-Brian
Krocks In The Kitchen I can see that they are lucky to have you, and your voice. Lol. Great videos guys! Thanks
I have the Liquid Aminos but only got the large bottle, have to get the small spray one. I was lucky to find it at Winco. We have no Trader Joes or Aldi in Visalia. Have to get creative with the spray, have everything else except the smokey paprika. Yes, and love your hair cut, Jessica!
Ahhh Jessica I love your hair! You look great with it short!!
Every night, my husband and I eat popcorn. Our dogs are addicted!! So are yours, I see!
Oh my GRAVY!!!!!! It tastes like a Chili Cheese Frito of the past. Thanks Mr and Mrs Krock🤩
It does!! :D
I use veggie broth in a spray bottle for mine, and I love your chili cheese mix! It's a nice change from my normal plain nooch! Thanks for the tips! Love your hair, Jessica! Brian, your hair is nice, too. :)
I'm going to have to try some veggie broth in the future! Yeah, Jessica's hair looks awesome! I've never really loved my hair but Jessica thinks it's one of my best features. 🙂
-Brian
I WAS SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU POSTED FABULOUS
We really try to post every Sunday and Wednesday. 😀
I sprinkle water on my
Popcorn then sprinkle a little salt on. I'll definitely try Brian's mix next time.
omg, love your haircut, Jessica!!
Love your hair, Jessica!
Yum! 👍🏽 I do a similar spice mixture on my popcorn, but simpler-nutritional yeast plus some Organic No-salt Seasoning from Costco, and sometimes added chili flakes. Great idea to put everything in the spice blender.
Yeah, the spice grinder is a very useful item to have around! 😀
👍🏻 good job, keep the recipes coming
Thanks!
My go-to popcorn seasoning is RealSalt, cayenne, and lots of ground dulce powder. Yum!!! The dulce is very salty on its own.
Sounds good! 😀
Your hair looks so cute, Jessica!
Great recipe! Great haircut! Thank you ☺️
Thanks!!
Omgosh I love your hair!!!!
Hi ! Would you pls share the link to this popcorn maker and the spice grinder pls?
Love you both ! Pls keep your videos coming 🥰🥰🥰
I LOVE putting dill pickle juice in a bottle and spraying it on my popcorn.... soooooooooooo yummy
I would totally try it out if we ever had pickles in the house. 😀
-Brian
I also use the butter flavor Pop Zest on veggies.
I use McCormick's Cocoa Chili Blend in the mix as well!!
Lime juice and tapatio with a bit of salt. So good
I love pickle juice on mine.. I also make a kettle one for the kids with a few teaspoons of sugar...
MORE VIDEO'S PLEASE AND THANK YOU
Here's my favorite popcorn spice recipe that I found a long time ago in some magazine:
Tandooori-Spiced Popcorn
4 Tbs paprika
2 Tbs turmeric
2 tsp black pepper
1 1/2 tsp dry mustard
1 tsp cayenne
I used to love popcorn, but felt it was causing sinus problems. During my plant based journey I've discovered the problem was dairy. This looks like a great way to enjoy my favorit again. Thanks
That spice mix looks delicious!! I think we'll try it on fries! 🍟
Ooooh good idea!!! 👏👏
I love your hair!!!
