today I made microwave popcorn and I thought that it popped perfectly, without an unpopped kernel in there and not at all overdone

like, what are the chances of that happening? does that happen?

but then I finished it and there were some unpopped pieces that I didn't see when I bowled it

but only a few

FIN

ps today I learned that garlic powder on popcorn is fucken amazing, no need to overdo it on the red pepper/cayenne/ etc

how do you like yrs

A co-worker got his hands on an actual movie theater popcorn maker and brought it into work. We bought seeds, oil, salt, and little bags. It was amazing. Fresh popcorn every day. I got pretty drat good at it. One day the machine broke. We figured out what was wrong and the replacement part cost almost as much as a new machine. A sad day indeed.

TIP:

gently massage the bag before microwaving, this lets more butter cover each kernel, and less butter left on the bag for you to lick off while clients watch

corn kernels, a bit of oil, put them in with the lid on then over a high heat then wait till theyre all popped and shake everynow and then to stop burning.it takes 90 seconds. microwave some butter in the microwave and pour it over afterwards,with a little salt. u can make shitloads for practically nothing. its not filled with volatile gases and pesticides like the bag stuff u greasy mittenhanded blubber chodes horf down

I bought a hot air popper and a bottle of popcorn flavoring stuff and it's 100 times better than in a microwave. And it basically takes the same amount of time to pop.

Have you tried holding the unpopped kernels in a spoon over an open flame? I have not personally, but it seems like it might work. If I get a chance to do it I'll report back.

I have a hot air popper, too. It makes popcorn that doesn't make me feel awful after eating it. I use butter, though. I haven't liked any of the popcorn toppings that I've tried.

some obscure reference
I worked at an apartment complex and I found a whole case of microwave popcorn tucked away in a cabinet. Bought for some marketing event. It was almost a year out of date.

I took it home and popped a bag. Almost the whole bag popped, but not into the big fluffballs you normally get. They popped into small, dense, crunchy, buttery, salty basically corn nuts but fresh and without requiring dental insurance.

It was amazing.

Old microwave popcorn is the best.
