Anyone else find most microwave popcorn too buttery?


I have to buy the “light” or reduced fat versions, I can’t stand how greasy and butter the rest of them are. Even Orville Redenbacher’s naturals simply salted is way too buttery.

The more butter the better!

I bought this and recommend it. I haven't gone back to the bagged stuff.

You can make your own in a brown paper bag. Half a cup of kernels and a teaspoon of oil of your choosing. (you can do it without oil too) Mix in a bowl, top with salt or whatever flavouring you want. Place in a bag. Fold the top over to keep the moisture in, I've done once and twice for the folds. Pop for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. Same way you do other microwave popcorn.

The yellow stuff on microwave popcorn tastes nothing like real butter.

Don't call it butter, call it "butter" with quote marks, or just yellow oil.
