I’ve got a question about the classified document case. Do you think I should get Jiffy Pop original or Orville Redenbacher microwave for my nightly news recaps?

[-] insomniac_lemon@kbin.social 27 points 3 years ago

You should obviously get Pop-Secret.

[-] JudahBenHur@lemm.ee 8 points 3 years ago

Uncle Oscar is my father??

[-] MelodiousFunk@kbin.social 3 points 3 years ago

Pop Secret Homestyle, to be exact.

[-] nilloc@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 3 years ago

Air popper + butter + salt + (trust me on this one) brewers/nutritional yeast.

Super addictive, but watch out for kernels.

[-] norbert@kbin.social 2 points 3 years ago

Nutritional yeast is great on popcorn! It has a slightly cheesy taste to me. It adds another layer of flavor to simple buttery salty popcorn.

The 2 secret ingredients in badass cheese sauce are nutritional yeast and a tiny bit of yellow mustard.
Cheese sauce which is great with tortilla chips, for people who can't eat popcorn. (I had bad teeth too, I see you)

TBH, I would just go for air-popped (more options for flavor anyway, and butter+salt is easy to get right).

I did look up reviews of microwave popcorn, and things seem pretty mixed (probably due to different preferences with oil and salt).

Get the Kirkland Brand Movie Theater Popcorn with Butter from Costco - it's great popcorn, is cheap, and comes in the mega-pack size you are going to need to get through all the cases.

[-] ThePantser@lemmy.world 4 points 3 years ago

I have a question, do you ever get a box that only pops half a bag. Like its a bad batch of corn. Then sometimes I get a box and it pops 101% of a bag and it's every package. It's weird shit.

[-] krayj@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 years ago

I have never gotten an inconsistent pop like that. I sometimes get bags that get all popped but a few, and sometimes I get a few dozen unpopped kernels, and everything in between, but I have never had half the bag fail.

[-] SoylentBlake@lemm.ee 8 points 3 years ago

I think you should go to the movie theater and buy some real popcorn for the RICO case in GA

Since that's the only one that'll be shown live on TV.

[-] Canopyflyer@lemmy.world 8 points 3 years ago

Buy an oil popper.

Then go buy butter flavored coconut oil

Then pick up Flavocol

Enjoy your movie theater level popcorn at a fraction of the cost.

[-] Whirling_Ashandarei@lemmy.world 1 points 3 years ago

Wait is this really what makes it better? I have q popper and the oil (tho a different brand that's prob less nice) but not whatever flavocol is.

[-] AssPennies@lemmy.world 4 points 3 years ago

Flavocol is what really punches you in the pleasure center of the brain... oh yeah and heart attacks, it contains plenty of heart attacks.

That's why it tastes so good.

[-] ZeroCool@feddit.ch 7 points 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago)

AMC Theaters actually released a line of microwave popcorn in grocery stores a few months ago. If you can find it in your area I’d stock up on that. It’s pretty good!

[-] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 17 points 3 years ago

They should just take the next step and release popcorn flavored butter.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago)

In my searching to see if anyone has actually done that, I didn't find anything, but it did lead me to this and I may have to find some. Even though they hated it.

[-] solidgrue@lemmy.world 3 points 3 years ago

Mmm. Savory diacetyl grain alcohol drool

[-] norbert@kbin.social 3 points 3 years ago

Naturally flavored (inexplicably).

[-] norbert@kbin.social 3 points 3 years ago

You're a genius, I want popcorn flavored butter now.

[-] adespoton@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 years ago

That’d be great on toast!

[-] Dkarma@lemmy.world 2 points 3 years ago

Bruh. Make ur own and add 1/4-1/2c of sugar to it to make kettle corn.

[-] Jaywarbs@artemis.camp 2 points 3 years ago

You should get Pop Qwiz - the stuff from the early 90s that came in different colors and you’d find out what it was when you opened the bag.

[-] jpj007@kbin.social 1 points 3 years ago

One of those giant cans of butter, caramel, and cheese popcorn.
