That's Just Crazy Talk

zapgun4hire tells me that you cannot get butter for your popcorn in the movie theaters. I haven't quite decided if the people in the UK are crazy or if he's just trying to pull my leg.

Perhaps they boiled it instead of popping it? I mean, htey are british, afterall.

Waitasec ... most Scots would argue quite emphatically that they are in fact _N_O_T_ British.

... and I'm not so sure how many Brits would admit to kinship with the Scots come to that!

(Sez I, whose ancestry goes back to both sides of Hadrien's Wall...)

Buttered popcorn... yer jokin' aren't ya?

It's true. You can get salted or sweet popcorn in the cinema. Go figure. The only place in my travels in Europe where you could get buttered popcorn was (get this) at the Olympic stadium in Rome when I went to see a soccer match. Weird.

Aren't you going to say in a future post that butter is the Scottish National ingredient?

Does not compute!

I know! It's just weird.
