Oreo Soft Cookies
Who can read Japanese? Is this green tea oreos or mint flavored oreos? The taste is so bland that I can't tell.

Homemade Spicy Cheese Popcorn - Take 2
Ok - Since my last attempt at making cheesy spicy popcorn was a failure, I've been thinking about how I can make it better. I finally decided to do the following..
-Put a good amount of salt (I didn't put any salt the last time)
-Put more butter (because butter is always the solution to everything)
-Use the cheese powder from a mac and cheese box to make my popcorn cheesy.
Results?
Looks exactly the same as the first time I made this right? Well, it wasn't!! It was really really ....eh. ;p
First mistake - I think I put too much salt.
Second mistake - do not put salt and then pour butter on the popcorn. I think this is what made certain pieces salter than the other. The butter didn't allow the popcorn to spread correctly.
The cheese part? Eh - I think mac and cheese powder is definitely better than regular grated parmesan cheese but it still didn't get the cheese consistency I wanted. I want my cheese popcorn to taste like the Wise Hot Cheese popcorn!
Also, for some reason, the popcorn itself just didn't taste all that great. I tasted like stale popcorn. I wonder if that's how it's suppose to taste or if I'm overcooking it.
On a good note, someone did say it tasted better than the first time I made it. I suppose that is a compliment.
I need to go back to the drawing board.

Homemade Spicy Cheese Popcorn - Take 1
First attempt at making homemade popcorn. I mixed together some dry ingredients and popped the popcorn using a wok and a wok cover. It was pretty simple.
It came out alright. I really wanted it to come out tasting like those Wise Hot Cheese Popcorn I love but I think that might have been wishful thinking. I'm going to do some more research and attempt to make this again the next time I rent a movie.
...and I kinda made a backup bowl in case I didn't like my popcorn ..... ;)
