Don't knock it until you've tried it!

Popcorn salad has been trending on social media ever since Food Network star Molly Yeh made it.  And what better day for Audra to bring it to us than on National Popcorn Day.  The dish is riff of a midwestern dish.
There are numerous recipes out there.   The common denominator is always popcorn mixed with a macaroni-salad-like dressing.

3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 cup of diced celery
1 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
3/4 cup pre-cooked bacon bits
1/4 cup shredded carrots
6 cups popped popcorn
Optional if you have: minced chives, water chestnuts
Mix all ingredients except popcorn, reserving a 1/4 cup each of the cheese and bacon for topping. Then add popped popcorn. spoon the salad into serving bowl and sprinkle remaining cheese and bacon on top.
