Never BUY Microwavable Popcorn Again - DIY Homemade Microwavable Popcorn

DIY Homemade Microwavable Popcorn
 
It's so easy, It's ridiculous! Why have  I never thought of this before. Why buy store bought microwavable popcorn? Research has shown that the store bought varieties contain harmful ingredients, that can  cause illnesses, lung disease, and possibly cancer. But, don't worry because I'm going to show you how simple making your own is, and how CHEAP it is. Best of all, no harmful chemicals needed.
 
Gather ingredients
brown paper bags, popcorn, melted butter, and salt
 
Add 1/4 cup of popcorn (you can play with it after a few times to adjust to how much you want)
Pop in microwave just as you would the store bought type.
I put it on 2 1/2 minutes, but I do NOT walk away. I listen to when the kernels slow down to a space of 2 to 5 seconds in between.
 
 
 

You will probably end up with twice as much as this. (this was my first attempt) Add a little melted butter. It will soak your bag a little. Don't worry. I have a solution. Add salt to taste, fold and shake. Now slip that bag inside another if your bag is butter soaked, or pour into a bowl.
That's it. I know, right. So SIMPLE!
