It's richly flavored margarine. It makes the popcorn taste buttery as hell.

People want it because it's delicious, a treat for when you go to the theaters, and because you overthink things.

I think it's boiling temperature isn't it? Quite hot. Oil on the tongue, erm no.

The reason for the self serve spigot is that judgmental employees were shaming people for asking for extra butter with shocked looks, are you sure? comments and disgust in the theme of stop-liking-what-I-don't-like judgments. It's also to keep the lines faster, because some people were asking for butter halfway through, and then topped off with more kernels so the middle was buttery as well as the end. Now they just fill it and it's done. No complaints about it being too much or too little. Some theatre goers probably get up halfway through their bucket and get butter and drink refills by leaving the theatre.

Yes, it's gross weirdly flavored oil. It's not real butter but it's a familiar movie-theatre-flavor and people are treating themselves while out. I'm sure if they wanted, theaters would have already figured out how to serve real butter, for an upcharge, but it's not something they found cost effective or viable or fitting food safety reasons. So, they don't. They have found that real bar snack food does work, however, as well as cocktails, so they do serve that!

Is it weird I have only recently went to a theater that had a self serve butter or drink area. The Regals nearby don't do this but I went to a Cinemark for The Last Skywalker and they had it
They also just had an opened quart container of Flavacol out there

I always clip my fingernails and keep them in my pocket and put them in open containers of public food items. My fav is salt shakers and ketchups at restaurants. My mom thinks I'm the ultimate troller but I'm thinking I'm just based.

It's really overrated. I guess a small amount of it makes it better, but it's hard to evenly distribute it and the popcorn directly in the splash zone gets drenched and soggy and disgusting. The concentrated cheese powders are way better. But I haven't bought food at a movie theater in ten years, fuck them I sneak in my own snacks and drink.
