This looks really good and I haven’t homemade popcorn in a long time which is bad because it tastes really good and it’s a healthier option for a snack

This is great to know. I usually break out the large pot for the popcorn then a dis for melting the butter and a batch of dishes. YUCK I do not have a dishwasher to hid them in so I have more dishes to was before I can go to bed. I hate to wake up to a mess.

This sounds so easy compared to the way my wife does it, she likes using Coconut Oil and a big popcorn pop with the stirring wand. It’s a real pain in the butt to clean all the time though. I think I will try this and see if she can be convinced.
