Microwave popcorn

[fenchurche]

Until recently, Costco's Movie Theater Butter microwave popcorn didn't actually contain any butter (or, more importantly, milk), but when I went to buy more last year, I did what I always do and checked the label... only to see that they had changed the recipe to include real butter. I don't blame them, since I suspect it will probably sell better

I always forget how much I like freshly popped popcorn until I stumble across it somewhere and stuff my face.

What a clever thing!

oh man, that sounds awesome!!! I'm putting it on my wishlist. Does it distribute the sale all over the corn while it cooks? I have an air popper but, like you said, it can be a hassle to pull those things out and also getting the topping anywhere but the first line of kernals is tricky.

...now I want popcorn.

The salt is not as evenly distributed as I might like it to be, but it does a decent enough job. I generally add a little bit extra when it's done popping and toss it through.

I have a love-hate relationship with poporn. I love it while I'm eating it, and usually regret it later. :P
