Taking inspiration from its best-selling recipes, Gousto is bringing big mealtime flavours from the dining table to the sofa for the 95th Academy Awards.
A new study by Gousto found that 35% of people said they no longer go to the cinema, instead preferring to stay at home and stream, with 53% of households enjoying making popcorn at home to mark the occasion.
Gousto is giving Brits a chance to go maverick this Oscars season with five popcorn flavours inspired by British classics, international icons and controversial food combos:
● Steak, Truffle Roasties & Herby Yorkshire Pud: (Vegan)
● Hot & Spicy Chicken Vindaloo: (Vegan, GF)
● Creamy Macaroni Cheese: (GF)
● Sweet & Spicy Katsu Curry: (Vegan)
● Bacon & Pineapple Hawaiian Pizza
Gousto ambassador, comedian and on-screen star, Katherine Ryan said: “I’m a huge fan of the Oscars – I tune in every year from the comfort of my couch. I've rarely seen any of the movies but I live for the drama, the dresses, the decadence – all of it! And when it’s over three hours long, great snacks are an absolute MUST, so I jumped at the chance to help Gousto bring the big flavours of its meal recipes to one of my favourite sofa-snacks. "
Andrew Lewis, Food Director at Gousto, said: “With awards season in full swing, we seized the opportunity to shine a spotlight on the choice and variety we offer. What’s fun is that whilst this popcorn is entirely new, we’ve stayed true to the choice and big flavour that we’re famous for."
