Yep, you read it right. Not to be confused with movie theater salad, which combines buttery popcorn with candy mix-ins, this popcorn salad is a savory side dish from the Midwest. It&#8217;s the sort of kitschy, old-fashioned recipe you&#8217;d find in well-worn copies of Junior League and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/praiseworthy-vintage-church-cookbook-recipes\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/praiseworthy-vintage-church-cookbook-recipes\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">church cookbooks<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>With a mayo-based dressing and fun mix-ins, popcorn salad may be an unexpected combination, but there&#8217;s no denying the creativity and fun packed into this dish. Plus, aside from popping corn kernels, this is a no-cook recipe. Once you try it, you&#8217;ll get why it&#8217;s such a crowd favorite!<\/p>\n<h2>What is popcorn salad?<\/h2>\n<p>Popcorn salad is a side dish that combines freshly popped popcorn with a creamy mayonnaise dressing and mix-ins, like crunchy veggies, shredded cheese and smoky bacon. Our version includes fresh celery and carrots, water chestnuts, shredded cheddar cheese, crispy crumbled bacon and aromatic chives.<\/p>\n<p>We keep the dressing simple with plain mayo. I&#8217;ve seen other versions that include a spoonful of Dijon or a splash of vinegar for extra tang, similar to other mayonnaise-based salads like creamy potato salad.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s anyone&#8217;s guess where popcorn salad originated, but celebrity foodie Molly Yeh featured it on an episode of <em>Girl Meets Farm<\/em>\u2014and the internet had a lot to say about it!<\/p>\n<p>According to Molly, popcorn salad is a Midwest favorite at potlucks and church gatherings. Some people are turned off by the thought of popcorn in a creamy, savory salad, while others are (rightfully) intrigued. Those who have tried it say it&#8217;s a must-make. There&#8217;s only one way to find out which camp you fall into.<\/p>\n<h2>Popcorn Salad Ingredients<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2154177\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Popcorn-Salad_TOHcom25_8106_MD_P2_05_30_1b.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"A variety of ingredients in bowls on a white surface, including popcorn, sliced celery, shredded carrots, bacon bits, water chestnuts, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped chives, and a bowl of mayonnaise.\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Mark Derse for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Mayonnaise:<\/strong> Creamy mayo acts as the dressing that brings the salad together. For a standout salad, choose a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/best-mayonnaise\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/best-mayonnaise\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">high-quality mayo<\/a> or substitute <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/miracle-whip-vs-mayo\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/miracle-whip-vs-mayo\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">Miracle Whip<\/a> for zippier flavor.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Celery:<\/strong> Celery brings a fresh, satisfying crunch to popcorn salad. Finely dice the celery so it doesn&#8217;t overpower the other ingredients.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shredded cheese:<\/strong> Cheese and popcorn are a classic combination, and this salad is packed with plenty of shredded cheddar to enhance the popcorn&#8217;s nutty flavor. Use mild cheddar for subtle cheesiness, or choose sharp cheddar for a bolder cheesy kick.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Water chestnuts:<\/strong> Look for canned <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/water-chestnuts\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/water-chestnuts\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">water chestnuts<\/a> in the international foods aisle. Just drain and chop them before adding them to the salad.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bacon:<\/strong> Cooked and crumbled bacon adds a salty, smoky note. This recipe calls for 3\/4 cup of bacon crumbles, which you can get from cooking roughly 10 regular slices of bacon. You can use precooked bacon pieces, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-cook-bacon\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-cook-bacon\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">cooking the bacon<\/a> yourself will deliver more taste and texture.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Carrot:<\/strong> Shredded carrots add sweetness and freshness to the salad. For convenience, grab a bag of shredded carrots at the grocery store and use the rest to make <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/carrot-raisin-salad\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/carrot-raisin-salad\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">carrot and raisin salad<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/carrot-cookies\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/carrot-cookies\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">carrot cookies<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chives:<\/strong> Fresh chives add brightness and a mild onion flavor. If you prefer a stronger onion flavor, try swapping in sliced green onions.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Popcorn:<\/strong> Popcorn salad tastes best when made with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-make-the-best-popcorn\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-make-the-best-popcorn\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">freshly popped popcorn<\/a>. Bagged popcorn from the snack aisle works in a pinch, but we recommend popping it yourself for the best taste and texture. It may go without saying, but popcorn salad isn&#8217;t the right use for heavily seasoned popcorn, sweet kettle corn or caramel-coated popcorn. Stick with plain white or yellow popcorn kernels and cook them using your favorite popping method.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Combine the salad ingredients<\/h3>\n<p>In a large bowl, combine the mayonnaise, diced celery, 1 cup of shredded cheese, water chestnuts, 1\/2 cup of crumbled bacon, shredded carrots and chives. Stir until everything is well mixed.<\/p>\n<p><em>Editor&#8217;s Tip:<\/em> A large bowl is key for this recipe\u2014popcorn takes up a lot of space, so you&#8217;ll need plenty of room to toss everything together.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Add the popcorn, then serve<\/h3>\n<p>Add the popcorn and gently stir to coat it in the dressing. Sprinkle the remaining 1\/4 cup cheese and 1\/4 cup crumbled bacon over the top. Serve it immediately.<\/p>\n<p><em>Editor&#8217;s Tip:<\/em> Popcorn is light and airy, so it immediately absorbs moisture. It&#8217;s best to add the popcorn as close to serving as possible to keep it crisp.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2154178\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Popcorn-Salad_TOHcom25_8106_MD_P2_05_30_2241.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"A large black bowl filled with a salad topped with shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon sits on a marble surface next to a folded napkin, a serving spoon, and small bowls of extra cheese and bacon.\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Mark Derse for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Popcorn Salad Variations<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Enhance the dressing:<\/strong> Give the dressing a tangy twist with a splash of cider vinegar, lemon juice or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/pickle-juice-uses\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/pickle-juice-uses\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">pickle juice<\/a>. You can switch the flavor by swapping out some mayo for sour cream, Greek yogurt or ranch dressing. If you prefer a sweet dressing, stir in 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vary the veggies:<\/strong> This recipe includes plenty of crunchy vegetables with celery, carrot and water chestnuts, but feel free to mix it up. Chopped bell peppers, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/healthy-radish-salad-recipes\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/healthy-radish-salad-recipes\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">radishes<\/a>, snap peas or onion would all make crisp and flavorful additions to popcorn salad.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Flavor it with fresh herbs:<\/strong> Mix chopped fresh dill or parsley into the mayo for a flavor boost.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add some heat:<\/strong> If you like a little kick, spice things up with chopped jalapenos or a few dashes of hot sauce stirred into the dressing.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Go meatless:<\/strong> To make this popcorn salad vegetarian, simply leave out the bacon. For a satisfying crunch, substitute slivered almonds or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/chili-lime-roasted-chickpeas\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/chili-lime-roasted-chickpeas\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">roasted chickpeas<\/a> instead.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Store Popcorn Salad<\/h2>\n<p>Popcorn salad is best enjoyed fresh. Although you can save leftovers, you might not want to. Once the popcorn is mixed into the dressing, it won&#8217;t be long before it softens and turns soggy. If you want to keep leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge and eat them within a few hours.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you make popcorn salad ahead of time?<\/h3>\n<p>Popcorn salad is not a make-ahead recipe. The popcorn should be added to the salad at the last minute to preserve its crisp texture. If you want to get this dish started early, you can prepare everything except for the popcorn in advance. Chop the vegetables, cook the bacon and combine them with the mayonnaise up to a day in advance. Keep the mixture refrigerated, then stir in the popcorn right before serving.<\/p>\n<h2>Popcorn Salad Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2154179\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Popcorn-Salad_TOHcom25_8106_MD_P2_05_30_2246.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"A close-up of a bowl filled with a salad made of cauliflower florets, shredded cheddar cheese, crispy bacon pieces, celery, and creamy dressing.\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Mark Derse for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>What&#8217;s the best way to make popcorn for popcorn salad?<\/h3>\n<p>You can cook popcorn kernels on the stovetop, in the microwave or in a dedicated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-popcorn-maker\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-popcorn-maker\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">popcorn maker<\/a>. The best popping method comes down to personal preference. For me, there&#8217;s no beating the taste and texture of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-make-popcorn-on-the-stove\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-make-popcorn-on-the-stove\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">stovetop popcorn<\/a>, but it does require cooking the kernels in oil.

And don&#8217;t forget to pick over the popcorn to remove unpopped kernels.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you make popcorn salad with microwave popcorn?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, you can use microwave popcorn in popcorn salad.
