Fans of The BFG by Roald Dahl know 'Frobscottle' as the name of a green fizzy drink from Giant Country where the bubbles go down instead of up. This fictive soda is what inspired the creation of 'The BFG Frobscottle Popcorn' from Joe & Seph's.
The gourmet popcorn snack is described as "a whizpopping blend of caramel, fruity raspberry and mint," which is a flavor that will appeal to book lovers, foodies and fans who've recently visited the cinema to see Steven Spielberg's new movie inspired by this classic Roald Dahl book.
Even though the unique popcorn snack is inspired by a carbonated drink, this air-popped treat from Joe & Seph's is made with a simple list of natural ingredients that offers a much healthier alternative to sugary soda beverages.
