Jody's Popcorn, perfect football watching snack

Our house loves football. Usually our Sunday involves us along with family and friends hanging out in the basement watching the Packers and whichever team is on the Red Zone channel.

Recently, my family was given the opportunity to try some Jody's Popcorn. Jody's Popcorn is "freshly popped in small batches, doubled sifted and hand drizzled mouth watering, premium ingredients so they explode with flavor."

We tried 4 different flavors, cheesy jalapeno, kettle corn, double cheddar and recipe 53 caramel corn. Since it was my son's birthday, I let him choose his favorite first. He went with kettle corn. A big fan of the salty, sweet, he devoured the bag in a flash.

I got to choose next and I went with the cheesy jalapeno. I loved the spicy kick and the cheesy goodness. It wasn't too spicy for those who aren't into the bold flavors. Plus, it had a good amount of cheese flavor. It was a great snack with my frosty beverage.

Jody's Popcorn can be purchased online http://www.jodyspopcorn.com/browse.cfm.  The store offers a variety sampler pack of the cheesy jalapeno, kettle corn, double cheddar and recipe 53 caramel corn for just $9.95. Jody's Popcorn  Their popcorn can be purchased by the bag, jar, tin, tub or box in 24 different flavors. Plus, Jody's Popcorn was featured on the Today Show!

Jody's Popcorn has offered all my readers a 15% discount too!  Enter momsbuck at checkout to get your discount.

So stock up for football season or Halloween parties. Head to Jody's Popcorn for a mouthwatering snack!

In addition to the good grades promotion, the Cougars are offering another promotion this weekend. For fans who purchase 5 tickets for this weekend's game, they will receive a sixth ticket free.  Game tickets for Cougar games range from $14 to $8 depending on game day and seat location.

The Cougar games offer tons of fun events at their home games. This weekend there will be fireworks after the game and the Zooperstars will perform on Saturday, June 12. Before the game on Saturday there will be an autograph session with Cougar players. And, the big fun for kids, after every home game, everyone is invited to run the bases. A perfect way to end a day of baseball.
