I never get more cravings for popcorn than while browsing through FR and seeing all the popcorn alerts, memes, and emojis LoL.

Best ever was jalepeno Orville Redenbacher. But they discontinued it many many years ago.

None of them compare to Jiffy Pop on a stove top.

Nothing beats popcorn, home made with coconut oil. No more microwave popcorn.

The best: skip the microwave and make it the old-fashioned way. Use coconut oil (movie theater secret) and Flavocol salt (the same as what was once included in the way of a little packet inside a bag of Jollytime popcorn). Add melted butter if that’s your thing.

Yeah, I’m old :).

Microwave popcorn just can’t hold a candle to popcorn cooked in coconut oil.

Anything with lots of butter. The more butter the better.

There’s no such thing as good microwave popcorn.

Jiffy Pop or old fashioned pop corn in a covered pot on the stove. Soaked in butter and loaded with salt.

If your fingers aren’t dripping with butter grease when done, then you never added enough butter. If your veins aren’t ready to pop from high blood pressure, then you never added enough salt. If your stomach isn’t bulging with pain, then you never ate enough.

I love popcorn!

There is no such thing.

Get a Whirley Pop. It pops just as fast and makes better popcorn.

In my childhood and that of my Mom, every Sunday evening was popcorn time.

Never found any microwave popcorn I liked. Jiffy Pop is marginal, popcorn made in a pan on the stove is best.

I don’t eat much popcorn these days. It tastes good but I hate digging the hull fragments out of my bridgework.

Um. No.

Skinny Pop Butter and Sea Salt is THE BEST microwave popcorn on the market.

I have a Hotpop silicone popper that goes in the microwave. It never burns the popcorn and has minimal unpopped kernels. It needs no oil. It costs under $20.

For salt, I grind it very fine in a electric coffee grinder I have so it’s a dust that sticks to the kernels.

Cooking it on the stove in a pan is a much cheaper alternative to potato chips and Doritos.

The absolute best microwave popcorn is the cheapest, butter-flavored one that anyone can find. ;-)

The wife bought me this Popcorn gift set recently.

Pre-messured bags that you can microwave or do stove top. So far I have popped two bags via the stove top in a large pasta type boiling pot with a couple tablespoons of Avocado oil. 7 minutes and a bit of pot shaking later wonderful popcorn. I kid you not, at least so far, not one unpopped kernal.
