"It is not the white cheddar powder you might find on grocery store popcorn, marketed as low calorie or of a skinny variety. This iPic popcorn is coated in a virulent, nearly radioactive orange powder that could only exist in the world of heavily processed foods. I'm talking Chester Cheetah orange. Home Depot sign orange."
"The popcorn collapses under my teeth and gushes with butter and cheese. The sensation is exquisite. Not too dry or airy. Not too chewy - just perfectly crunchy. The powder clings to my fingers, staining whatever I touch."
"It's available to go, no movie ticket required, making it the ideal snack to bring to a party. I suggest you order the popcorn with a pair of chopsticks, so you can dig around for the cheesiest pieces and keep your fingers powder-free."
iPic Theaters, a luxury cinema chain with Southern California locations in Westwood and Old Pasadena, offers distinctive cheese popcorn that stands apart from standard theater fare. The popcorn features an intensely vibrant orange cheese powder coating, reminiscent of processed snack foods, combined with generous butter. The texture is perfectly balanced—collapsing under teeth while remaining crunchy, neither dry nor chewy. The cheese powder readily transfers to hands and surfaces, leaving visible traces. The popcorn can be purchased without a movie ticket, making it ideal for parties and gatherings. Using chopsticks while eating prevents fingers from becoming stained with the distinctive orange powder.
