Anybody know of a source for bag-in-box CLEAR (not the orange stuff) pure coconut popping oil? My concession vendor suddenly discontinued it without warning.

It appears to be fairly plentiful in other forms, like giant metal pails, but my equipment is set up for bag-in-box.

If the oil isn't yellow I really will not eat it
I like my corn poped in yellow coconut oil with lots of savoral

Our customers are different, I guess. We serve white popcorn, popped in clear oil. When we've tried something different, our folks don't like it.

Some of 'em even get a little ugly about it! [Wink]

Gord, you'd like our popcorn...that's our exact recipe! [Big Grin]

(Well we don't put in LOTS of Savoral but we do put some in, and we have a shaker full of it on the counter.)

Hey Nate-

I hope you don't store that stuff in the same room you had your picture taken! [Big Grin]

Not enough space in that Denver bathroom for supplies. Just you and the poopy brown stall walls.

That really stinks about the oil Bill, I will have to enjoy my last boxes than.
