Heat a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the vegetable oil and three popcorn kernels to the pot.
Cover the pot with a lid and wait for the test kernels to pop. Once popped, remove the test kernels and add the remaining popcorn kernels in an even layer.
Cover the pot again, leaving the lid slightly ajar to allow steam to escape, and shake the pot occasionally to prevent burning. Continue cooking until popping slows to about 2 seconds between pops. Remove from heat.
Transfer the popped popcorn to a large mixing bowl, discarding any unpopped kernels.
Sprinkle the popped popcorn with salt and gently toss to evenly distribute.
Add the dried cranberries, chopped dried mango slices, and golden raisins to the popcorn. Mix gently until evenly combined.
Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until smooth.
Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the popcorn and dried fruit mixture. Using a spatula or spoon, gently toss the mixture until evenly coated with the chocolate.
Spread the popcorn medley onto a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer and allow the chocolate to set at room temperature for about 20 minutes.
Once set, break the popcorn medley into clusters, if necessary, and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
