A brief answer to your q:
The secret to the taste of genuine kettle corn is in the cooking process itself. The popcorn must be popped in a very hot coating of cooking oil inside either a cast iron or stainless steel kettle. A mixture of finely granulated sugar is placed in the kettle at just the right time. As the popcorn pops, the sugar caramelizes in a fine layer on each kernel of corn. Unlike caramel corn, which is drenched in sweetness, kettle corn is lightly sweet and lightly salty. Don't be fooled by some of the commercial versions of kettle corn on the market! What they call "kettle corn" is often a cheap grade of popcorn that is thrown into a massive hot-air popper, and then literally sprayed with a sweet/salty concoction made of who-knows-what!
