and got a mini popcorn machine

I'm semi intrigued by this. How is it? And what kind of volume does it turn out?

I've actually become boss at making popcorn on the stove though. I watch a lot of movies.

If you haven't come across it yet, Flavacol is amazing for getting that cinema popcorn buzz.

Flavacol is insanely good, and it's stupidly cheap.

Preach!!! I got gifted my first one and it lasted like 4 years and going. I have a fresh one lined up.

I sprinkle it on my roast potatoes now while they're still in the oven. Nom nom nom. Amazing gear.

Try it on fries as well, a little goes a long way.

Oh yeah Flavacol is the best. I also really like using coconut oil.

Ours is 8 oz(1 cup kernels) but it's a true popcorn machine because it does the heating, and the turning. I really like it. It's enough to feed ~10 people with a little bowl, and it only takes ~10 minutes so it's easy to make seconds to share, and I've never had anyone have room for thirds.

We tried an air popper but I just can't get the right flavor
