Crack Caramel Popcorn

 We love caramel popcorn and  this is such a yummy simple recipe. This popcorn is addictive, combining the flavors of sweet and salty. Once you start eating this you won't be able to stop, so we suggest sharing this with family and friends. Warning: Do not think you can make this and only have a little. This popcorn is dangerous if you are alone with it.  Please eat with a group!!!

¼ cup light corn syrup
