How to make Halloween Fluffy popcorn

After this, add half a bag of cake mix and stir until blended in.
Next you need to fold in a bag of popcorn, and add sprinkles of candy corn.
Fan reaction
Fans are loving this recipe, but some have been left concerned about one of the ingredients that’s used.
One wrote: “Is it ok to eat raw cake mix?? Not sure about that with the flour in it. But this looks so good!”
While this one said: “But the bacteria from the uncooked flour???”
Another added: “Isn’t it unsafe to eat cake mix without baking it? The flour can contain harsh chemicals.”
Getting ill from uncooked flour or flour products is rare, but it can happen.
People are advised against eating flour or flour products that have not been cooked thoroughly.
This is because flour is not usually treated during processing to kill any food poisoning bacteria that may be present.
