This is the silver lining we need during this stressful time. The internet have been mistaking a 30-year-old popcorn maker from America with the potential future-prime minister (boo-urns!) Peter Dutton.

Peter Dutton is the mastermind behind Soul Foods popcorn, not an evil politician/sentient potato with a history of racism. Although, we think he’s probably more fit to run our country.

In fact, the internet are basically begging for him to run in parliament.

It’s a beautiful, wholesome affair and Mr. Dutton (the popcorn man) has our full confidence and political backing. A country built on a foundation of puffed corn is the only country I’m interested in living in.

Whilst you’re here we may as well plug the guys business. He runs a popcorn company called “Soul Popped Gourmet Popcorn”. A confectionary company bringing new flavours to popcorn, and they look freaking delicious. There’s a bunch of unusual flavours like Macaroni & Cheese, Chicken N Waffles, Banana Pudding and “Big Momma’s Fried Chicken”.

We hope that his new political gainings grant him the freedom to expand his business to Aussie shores, because quite frankly — I can get down with Mac’N’Cheese popcorn.
