The Wild Walleye Popcorn At Great Lakes Popcorn Co Might Be The Weirdest Thing You Ever Eat In Ohio

There are some pretty odd food pairings and combinations we enjoy here in Ohio. Chili on spaghetti? Yes. French fries dipped in milkshakes? Double yes! Wild walleye and popcorn? Um... hold the phone. In picturesque Port Clinton, Ohio, Great Lakes Popcorn Co. is a delightful neighborhood popcorn shop that's a celebrated town centerpiece. This local business is known for its weird and wacky varieties of everyone's favorite snack... but the Wild Walleye Popcorn might be the weirdest food you ever eat in Ohio.

When you think of "classic" popcorn varieties, what comes to mind? Butter and olive oil, of course, and perhaps caramel and cheese.

Maybe you enjoy a bit of chocolate drizzle for the ultimate sweet-and-salty pairing.

But... fish-flavored popcorn? As in the Wild Walleye Popcorn from Great Lakes Popcorn Co.? It boggles the mind... and palate!

And yet, Wild Walleye is just one of the "classic" flavors churned out by the bagful at Great Lakes Popcorn Co.

A community cornerstone in Port Clinton, Ohio, Great Lakes Popcorn Co. opened in 2000, but with its distinct red-and-white awning, it feels decidedly, delightfully, old-fashioned.

Though, we're not sure popcorn shops made varieties like this back in the day! In addition to Wild Walleye, you'll find a veritable ROYGBIV of popcorn varieties such as Vanilla Butternut, Jelly Bean, Green Apple, Black Cherry, Root Beer, and...

...Lake Erie Mermaid! This flavor is more "snack mix" than popcorn, with Cotton Candy Popcorn, Mermaid Tails Gummies, Goldfish Crackers, Marshmallows and Sixlets Candies.

Weird? Yes. But, hands down, the weirdest thing you'll eat in Ohio is the Wild Walleye Popcorn from Great Lakes Popcorn Co.

While Wild Walleye Popcorn sounds like a flavor you'd find in a bag of Bertie Bott's Beans, it's an Ohio delicacy you can only find here in the Buckeye State! If you've tried this unique item from Great Lakes Popcorn Co, tell us what you thought. And if not... well, don't knock it 'til you try it, friends!
