We've got to admit that the lines around the block for Garrett Popcorn often baffle us, but people seen to absolutely love the stuff. That means when they release a special edition, it's inevitably going to be a pretty big deal.

This year, to maximize your football snacking efficiency and eliminate the need to stock popcorn, vegetables with ranch dip and buffalo wings at your party, Garrett has launched a new buffalo ranch flavor of popcorn. It's got ranch flavor with buttermilk, plus cheese, cayenne and buffalo sauce. Plus, according to the release, a "pinch of salt." It's a hefty pinch; in case you're interested, one "serving" (which is 30 grams, or about an ounce) has 13 percent of your daily required sodium intake. But it's got 100 percent of your daily required ranch/buffalo awesomeness, so who cares?

The new flavor is only available until Nov. 22, and is only available online. It's $33/gallon.
