About The Popcorn
You will need 12 cups or 3 quarts of popcorn for this recipe and it needs to be non-flavored popcorn since the gelatin adds flavor.
One ounce of unpopped popcorn kernels will yield 4 cups or one quart of popped popcorn. So you will need to repeat the following recipe 3 times in order to get the required amount.
