amazing popcorn
I've tried many brands of popcorn, and this one is the best, bar none. Fluffy, tender, and flavorful. It is far better than all the name brands. You won't waste your money on Orville after you've tried this!

Great Theater-like Popcorn
This is the best popcorn I have ever bought, outdoes Orville Redenbacker's popcorn in size and taste. It is also the cheapest at approx. $1.20/lb. It pops up really well in the microwave (avoid all plastic microwave containers). I use a 3 qt glass bowl with a glass plate on top as a lid. It fits loosely enough so that when I overfill it with popcorn, the popcorn can lift up the lid easily and let excess gas escape. Most popcorn is pressure-sensitive so that if there is too much popcorn in a bowl to pop, some kernels will not pop. Almost every kernel pops when I microwave on high in a 1500 watt microwave oven for about 5 1/2 min (about 1 1/2 TBLSP popcorn) and no added oil. In fact when I popped about 8 bowls of the popcorn (had to cool off bowl each time to avoid overheating the microwave and burning popped pieces), I found about 5 unpopped kernels in the bottom of the large paper bag.This popcorn outdoes all of the microwavable popcorn brands that you will see in...

Bye Bye WAY overpriced Supermarket Corn!
I regularly pop corn in a wok with canola oil. Nothing fancy, pops like a charm. My local supermarket chain (VONS) used to sell those old plastic bags of corn for like $2. You know -- those old fashioned bags that just sit there while everyone else buys all the microwave garbage.Well VONS slowly marked up these bags to about $3 over the years. Then one day they were all GONE. Replaced with Orville Reddenschmucker like 'jugs' of unpopped corn. Just under two pounds of corn for --- WAIT FOR IT -- $5.I have to pay MORE money and get more container but LESS corn?!? I don't THINK so...So I start surfing the web. My God -- some site was willing to sell me a 50 pound bag for like $18. My cheapness grinned ear to ear. Then I saw the shipping charge --- WAIT FOR IT -- $43. Yeah... no...So then I see this brand at Amazon. 12.5 pounds for $17. Shipping? FREE. And I don't have to store 50 pounds!Just over a dollar a pound...
