So one day, I came across an article explaining how to pop your own popcorn in the microwave, using your own paper sack. So that's what I've been doing. I don't like air-popped corn, and I don't have a stove-top popper (yet, anyway). So, you put about 1/3 cup of popping corn in a little brown paper lunch sack (and you CAN reuse it), press out the air, then tri-fold the ends and I cook for about 2 minutes. It stays in the bag. It does burn more quickly, so you have to experiment with time. As soon as it's out, I drizzle w/ butter and salt. I am going to experiment with doing it in a covered dish, and adding oil/salt beforehand.

Anyway, for those of you who still have a micro, it DOES work. This is actually one of the only times I ever use the thing.

We've been doing this at our house. My girls love to experiment with flavors. My brother uses the oil from his hot gardinarre and makes spicy popcorn.

I've seen it done. I still think it's more complicated than doing it on the stove with a little vegetable oil.
