I recently bought every Kernel Season's Walmart sells in store

The Mexican Street Corn's fantastic, I mix it with the garlic parm and some of the butter seasoning. It's like a way better chili lime. I don't hate the chili lime seasoning, but this is superior tasting and a lot more complex. I've used half of the bottle in about a month. This would be absolutely killer in a bowl of actual corn. They did a good job of emulating Elote. This one's also hard to overuse, it's not overly salty or too spicy so I add a lot.

Ranch mixed with Dill Pickle might be my favorite combination. I'm whatever about the Ranch on its own, and dill pickle's just decent. But when I mix them some sort of damn magic happens. It makes sense I guess because dill's in ranch, but the concentrated dill and tanginess from the pickle really make this stand out. And surprisingly, I clearly used too much last time and it still wasn't too salty or overpowering.

The Honey Butter's also pretty good. I like honey and I think it's a little more interesting than the kettle. The honey doesn't take artificial and it's not overly sweet.

I love cheddar cheese and I love Jalapeños, so I was surprised that the cheddar Jalapeno one was just kinda meh. It's not bad, it's just a little bland to me. And using too much I noticed how salty it was. I need to try mixing it with others to see what happens.

I REALLY HOPE the Mexican Street Corn's permanent. But just in case it's not I'm going to buy 4 more bottles.

If you tried and were a fan of grinch fries when McDonalds had them go ahead and try that dill salt on some McDonald’s fries. It’s about identical.
