Contest: Win Charlie's Truffled Popcorn

Ready for another contest giveaway? Here it is. Do you love truffles? How about popcorn? Well, Susan Rice Truffle Products has found a way to combine the two in a salty gourmet snack called, you guessed it, truffled popcorn.

Charlie's Truffled Popcorn is available at the Susan Rice Truffle Products website and select Whole Foods stores (call 512-477-4455 to determine the store nearest you). A 1-ounce bag costs $5 and a 3-ounce bag is $8.

This snack starts with air-popped white corn and then it's sprinkled with black Perigord truffles (fungi). While most Perigord truffles grow in France, Susan Rice is actually growing them right here in America on a farm in North Carolina. Rice, owner of the Black Diamond French Truffles, Inc., in Pinehurst hopes to make the truffle a less expensive and more mainstream food experience. French Perigord truffles can cost $90 an ounce. With U.S. cultivation, Rice hopes to bring that cost down so more Americans can enjoy these aromatic delicacies.

In addition to Charlie's Truffled Popcorn, other products available for purchase include truffle oils; salts and seasonings; truffle pasta; fresh, frozen, and canned truffles; and gift baskets.
