Well /tv/?Are you a bag boy or a stove joe when making cinematory food?
>>215594616Air popper master class with Tabasco butter.
>>215594616>using the stove to pop the shitty microwave packsWorst of both worlds.
>>215594616I have evolved beyond the need for heating.
>>215594616Got one of these fuckers (Though I guess an older one) and usually save the grease from when I make bacon and use that as the fat to pop my corn with
>>215594703It was the best picture I could find on the web to illustrate my point on microwave vs. stove top popcorn making, And you're right. I was too lazy to create an image myself, I hope the dichotomy still stands.
>>215594753These taste the same from every company which is good since against all odds they're perfect.
>>215594753>cold popcorn
>>215594753The sheer volume of popcorn I go through in a month this would be very inconvient in a volumetric sense to store.
they are much better from kettle, but it is also more dirtier work and requires some cleaning afterwards
do people even own microwaves in this day and age? it feel like such a 90s american thing
>>215594970Is there faster and more energy efficient way to heat up old food than using microwave?
>>215594616For me it’s the whirley pop
>>215594616Whenever I tried to make stovetop popcorn it came out chewyI assume I was doing something wrong with the steam but I don't know if I needed more steam or less
>>215594616Thinking of popcorn just makes me feel sad. Robert told me it was for couples only.
>>215594970I use microwaves at work or in morning for quick breakfasts like egg whites, oatmeal or warm cereal
>>215594970I'm American and haven't owned a microwave in nearly 10 years. Every single person I know thinks it's extremely weird that I don't. People who come over without knowing it are shocked when they can't find the microwave. I get bombarded with all kinds of questions, like how do I reheat leftovers or heat up water for hot chocolate or tea or all kinds of other things. Microwaves are so common in every household that not having one makes people think you're a freak of nature.
>>215595147Yeah, I use these when I (rarely) eat popcorn.Kernels, a few spoons of butter flavored coconut oil and some popcorn seasoning and that's all. If I want it even more buttery just add some more oil topping like they do in theaters.
>>215594910Unless you fuck up and burn it it's really nothing at all. It's only a tablespoon or so of oil.
Chinese pressure cooker popcorn makers in chat?
>>215594616I only eat the finest hot air popped corn no salt no fats
>>215595523oil tends to be oily and drips in places. corns go all hiroshima and oil explodes and drips under the lid and then it's all over the kettle and goes on the stove and burns there and i'm just lazy
Bagged popcorn has one of the largest amount of PFAS, you shouldn’t be eating that shit
>>215594616Stove all the way. Once you get the hang of it it tastes better and it’s so much cheaper too.
>>215594616Let me guess: you need more?
>>215596111Someone paid 4000 for a rice tsunami wok sculpture to have it on youtube video for few seconds
>>215594616As a kid, I always wanted to buy Jiffy Pop, because I liked toe idea of cooking it on the stove, but we got microwave popcorn instead. I still eat microwave popcorn due to goddamn scouting fundraisers. I don't have it often though, because I don't want to get popcorn lung.
>>215596400>popcorn lung.wut
>>215594616JiffyPop on the stove with a cigarette in my mouth
>>215596111>spills everywhere
>>215594616>Orville redenbacher>A tablespoon or so of red coconut oil>Melted butter and salt after it's poppedAnything less is slothenly, anything more is masturbatory.
love stove also I'll make jiffy its tasty
>>215596619top tier camping food
>>215596421Look it upI had a friend who used to dust the top of his popcorn with brewer's yeast. I've also heard of people sprinkling nutritional yeast over their popcorn, or is that the same thing?
If it ain't broke
>>215596705they taste like ass with out any fat though, they taste like hair dryer
>>215594616Jiffy Pop is fun.>>215594970How else are you supposed to make a hot cup of tea?
>>215596738You just melt some butter and throw on some popcorn salt
>>215594970No anon. Nobody on earth owns a microwave.
>>215596705No, you want the ones with the stirrers that you can add butter to.
>>215595694>oil tends to be oily
>>215594616I do not own a microwave.
>>215596795I apply the melted butter and salt in layers as it comes out of the machine, as my ancestors did before me
>>215596705this is my go-to. i can eat it plain and enjoy it but it's better with butter and salt.mine works fast too
>>215594616I just buy those chocolate covered corn ball things. Better than popcorn.
>>215596839Yeah it pops in a couple of minutes, no clean up except if you melted butter. Can get bulk popcorn at Winco for under a dollar a pound.
>>215596902>no clean upnot in my casei get a full bowl of popcorn and then a kernel is shot into it, explodes, and sends popcorn everywhere
>>215596948RIP kitchen floor sanctity
>he doesn't pop his corn with a gas turbine powered steam cannon
>>215597227This chinaman apparently doesn't either
>>215595317>like how do I reheat leftovers or heat up water for hot chocolate or tea or all kinds of other thingswhat in the genuine fuck is wrong with americanswhy is everything they do wrongwho the fuck microwaves water
You can make your own smart food with left over packets of parm cheese from pizza places. Insert. Shake. Cram. Wala
>>215597227There’s one smart parent that shields the kid from the popcorn pressure bomb the second the lunitic turns that thing on.
>>215594616I prefer to eat crab from my local kinoplex when watching kino
>>215597363This and a bucket of peanuts, a bag of extra large sunflower seeds, a bag of extra-loud crispy kettle chips, and a large diet coke.
>>215594616Air popper but i have a soft spot for stove top jiffy pop
>>215594616I bought some Flavacol, Coconut Butter, and a heavy bottomed 4 qt pot and im never going back to the bag bros
>>215598541Nice.
eating while watching a film is wrong
>>215598896Shut the fuck up.
>>215594650
>>215598896So is being gay but you don’t let that stop you.
>>215595147Based
>>215597302It's a quick, efficient way to heat up water.
I use my vintage Magical Princess Minky Momo popcorn air popper.
if you put salt in a blender, it becomes an ultra-fine powder. the powder is so fine that it sticks to popcorn without the need for any oil/fat. you can make salted popcorn without all the calories!
>>215599544I need the calories for blubber or else I won’t survive the winter.
>>215595573i tried using one of these inside the showing of the joker and everyone thought it was a gunshot and there was a panic that led to some ugly black kid dying. it was covered up and the parents got tried and found guilty for negligence
>>215594970Let me guess, you use one of those shitty air fryers.
>>215594616stainless steal bowl, heat it up on you stove topmelt clarified butter or coconut oil with beta carotene in the bowl, enough to cover kernelsadd kernels and flavorcol popcorn saltcover that shit with foil and poke some holes in it once it starts popping start shaking it until it stopsmovie theatre popcorn at home.
Just buy raw corn kernels, pop it yourself using a pan + oil. You can change up the seasonings too. My current favorite is using chicken bouillon powder to give it a nice savory taste.
>>215600434>stainless steal bowlI would only use a stainless bought bowl.
I just buy a bag of kettle corn every Friday from the truck that parks down on the corner.
>>215600532In this economy?
You've got me thinking of my mind palace again, and the television and film room within. I've often put off the question of the popcorn maker, but I'll think about it now.
>>215594616Making popcorn on the stove is very easy. Just need a big pot on medium low. If any microwave stans are reading this you need to make the switch. Waste of time and I’m sure whatever they put in that shit is terrible for you.
air popper, butter, cheese flavoring, caramel melted on top, 2 pepsi
>>215600589I’ve been thinking about one of these big bitches. It’s not that much more expensive than the little pot stirrer ones.
>americans eat 800 calories worth of palm oil as a "light" movie snack
>buy bag or block of sharp cheddar>nibble on the popped corn and throw a little cheddar in your mouth at the same timeez cheese popcorn
should i feel bad about sneed oils when i get popcorn at the theaters
>>215600786Waste of space and money. Have you tried using a regular pot? It works plenty good.
>>215600934Are you implying I don’t have other snacks in addition to the popcorn?
>>215600934Haha you jelly
>>215597339>one
>>215600994I abandoned logic a long time ago.
>>215596705my parents had one of these when i was a very small child. those were better times. before all the fighting and shit. we used to just make popcorn and watch old james bond movies....
>>215599358no, now you have a heated mug too or possibly instead when you could just using a kettle/jug designed for heating up the water itself and side benefit of now you have water for multiple people if neededagain, americans are retarded
>>215594616just had these for the first time, theyre really good. good flavors for your popcorns
>>215601816We don’t drink tea. This would be like me asking you what kind of sling you use for your ar15. I have a kettle but most people here don’t.
>>215594616Neither. I love the smell of popcorn because of movie theater nostalgia, but you're basically just eating salty styrofoam. I'll occasionally just pop it for the smell, and then dump it outside in bowls for the birds and squirrels.
>>215601816Why does everything have to be some fight to you faggots? Why is handling water heated in a microwave such a mind-bending task for you?
>>215594804I too have a hot air corn popper. My trick is to spray some PAM on it so the salt/seasoning sticks. It's tasty and it's dirt cheap.
>>215601816>no, now you have a heated mug tooThen...and try to follow me on this...you can then transfer the heated liquid to another container if that's an issue for your trembling vagina.
>>215602143
>>215602181Now I can cut out the delicious middle man and get straight to the grease!
>>215602181Ach! My retirement grease!
>>215602181I'm sure it's delicious because bacon grease is always delicious. But I don't wanna eat muh corn that way. I'm an older anon and the doctor says if I don't cut out the damn cholesterol and shit my brain or heart might explode. I'm keepin' it light.
>>215595573>>215599593For me, it's when the machine pops a Chinese
>>215594881hot cold sodas and cold hot popcorn
>>215602261At that distance popcorn is like concrete.
>>215602261Did he die?
