I tried all the tricks and I was never satisfied with the popcorn. There's apparently a bit of a trick to getting popcorn to stovetop pop. Since we all like to live in a world where we do things the cutest, most Pinterest-worthy way possible I immediately pulled out a pot and some oil and tried to stove top pop my popcorn.Īll I ended up with was a pot I had to scrub burnt oil from and 3 popped kernels. So on a whim I bought a bottle of Orville Redenbacher's popcorn and brought it home with me. I also bought prepopped bags of popcorn which were O.K., but still not great. I was buying bags of microwave popcorn and using those but I didn't really like the fake butter popcorn. Luckily I've found if you put even just a tablespoon of butter on popcorn it improves it immensely. There's no comparison between the crispy goodness of a potato chip and a styrofoamy mouthful of popcorn. When someone makes a movie that's more interesting than some of the weirdos I know on Facebook, then I'll watch it. I say pretending because what I'm usually doing is half listening to a movie while I work on my computer or creep people's Facebook pages. So I've had to move on to another snack that I can eat while I'm pretending to watch a movie at night. I do this over and over again until all the chips are gone which usually takes about half an hour. I just put a reasonable amount into a small bowl, close up the bag and put it away in the cupboard. Because if I have chips in the house I eat the chips in the house. I cannot be trusted with a cupboard filled with salty, crispy goodness that fits neatly into a bowl and makes my mouth water just thinking about them. In fact, I like chips so much that I can no longer have chips in the house. That pretty much sums up my love of the potato chip. I love them with all of my heart. I store my knitting needles in a Pringles can. Popping popcorn in the microwave is fast, easy and puts on a show like Jiffy Pop! Here's the easiest and most entertaining way to pop your satisfying snack.
