Tuesday is National Popcorn Day, a day to celebrate moviegoers' favorite treat.
Whether it's caramelized, smothered in cheese, buttered or plain, there's no wrong way to eat popcorn.
Celebrate with one of these recipes from local food bloggers.
Local blogger Baker Bettie shares a recipe for popcorn with a sweet and salty twist with her salted caramel corn.
"The salty/sweet combo will never get old in my book because it is just such a classic (and highly addictive) combo," Baker Bettie says.

On her blog, Sally's Baking Addiction, Philly local Sally, who calls herself a "peanutaholic," shares a recipe for peanut butter caramel corn.
"Shower your innocent popcorn with the peanut butter/honey mixture," she says. "Those little kernels never saw that peanut butter coming!"

On her blog Cake Over Steak, Sara Cornelius shares a recipe that combines two snack favorites: kettle corn and chocolate chip cookies.
"I developed my deep affection for kettle corn at Hersheypark," she explains. "I would buy a fresh, warm bag of kettle corn by the front of the park, and then swing over to one of the gift shops to buy a bag of Hershey’s miniatures. These two items had to be enjoyed together."
