Air pop is my wife's favorite.. but only because it makes for easier clean up. We made popcorn last night for movie night at our church, everyone loved the commercial machine Margaret Rome Baltimore 410-530-2400 because it makes it exactly the same way as the movie theater does.

I love popcorn and air pop it in a pyrex bowl with no oil.  And everyone knows it is popcorn that the water pik was invented for.

The annoying part is finding the remnants under the sofa cushions.

Sadly, I do not eat popcorn anymore, my stomach outgrew it - along with ice cream. They do not "cooperate" any longer.  Ahh aging, it's always an interesting new phase.

I love popcorn ... there are times that is what I eat for dinner.  

Fresh organic popcorn popped with organic olive oil, then sea salt and dill weed sprinkled all over it.   (that is Dill weed) 😜

I broke a crown eating popcorn and so did my son. That makes for some expensive popcorn!

I like popcorn too! I've gone back to popping it in a pan on the stove. We don't do the microwave popcorn any longer. I order it from the Amish. Anyhow, getting it stuck in my teeth is a given. Very annoying.

My parents used to treat us to popcorn on the stove each Sat nite, and I still remember the 9 little bowls portioned out to each of us and a small glass of diet ginger ale for each of us 7 children.  What a treat! There was even some made for the dog to catch as it popped out of the pot, accidentally of course!  My Mum still loves it at 94 and I think I'll pop her some tonite. Thanks for the memory!

It is so good. When I met Tracy she would make a big bowl of it on a Friday enough for Friday and Saturday, that would be her weekend dinners when her kids were with their dad. She will still do it if I'm not going to be home for dinner, we have an air popper so she feels she is eating healthy! lol

In the beginning, the siblings would gather as the big wooden bowl was presented. This was in preparation for viewing either Bonanza or  'wonderful world of.'   As much as you could grasp with ONE HAND was the allotted portion. This plus the 4 oz of Coke. The once-a-week splurge in farm life.
Today, the one hand rule no longer applies, Coke is out, Netflix is IN. (Stranger Things)
How long does a popped corn remain viable after escaping the bowl?
Cough, cough.

The worst is when it somehow gets wedged in between your teeth.  Not so much an issue with air popped, but it does happen with them too, but it's mostly the name brands of pre-popped and seasoned stuff that does that.  Really annoying until you can finish the show you're watching to go get some floss.

I do well with popcorn and love it.  Always try to get fresh popped at the theater with loads of butter.  Not a big fan of micro-pop but it works in a pinch.  Been eating a lot of cheese corn lately.

Hi Bob... I like popcorn but almost never eat it. In fact, can't remember the last time I had some. I suppose part of the reason is that my Dutch husband hates it and considers corn something you feed to livestock not to humans.
