What? No. No dairy in either. If there was, I couldn't eat it. Some
theaters do have a real butter topping that you can get, or so I have read.
But ours here use a "buttery topping", if you want that in addition.
Standard popcorn machine popcorn is popped in coconut oil with artificial
butter flavoring and also have an artificial butter flavored popcorn salt.
If you buy those things as a consumer, and dairy is an issue, you do have to
check. Some do contain dairy. But most of the commercially popped stuff
does not.
