What's fiddle-faddle?
It said it's pop corn, I don't know if it's right. Even if so, how to understand this show line ' you ate fiddle, now it's all faddle' ?

The term "fiddle-faddle" means "nonsense" or "foolishness".
"Fiddle" used alone is a musical instrument.
I have never seen "faddle" used alone, it is always with "fiddle-faddle".
Hope that helps. :)

Thank you guys, the show which refered to this term is about 1980s. so it's likely this brand is gone. and thank you all for your help.

"Fiddle-faddle" was a brand name of a sweet popcorn and nut snack in the US. I'm not sure if it is still sold. It is not, however, another name for popcorn generally.
