Flavacol is the seasoning movie theaters use for popcorn, and fake butter also imbues that movie theater taste; real melted butter just makes popcorn soggy

[Anonymous No.20249977]

>>20249970
You're right, I forgot about that. I use the silicone bowl because I didn't want to shell out money for a gigantic pot that I'd never use for anything else

>squirts half a cup of fake butter on his toasted corn for that movie theater taste

That shit tastes terrible, just bring your own seasoning, ask them to give you an extra bag or two, and just pour your shit in there and then cover the bag with the other one upside down with the excess in the other bag if needed, and shake it up.

Also, temper you butter, if you cool it down a bit it won't 'melt' the popcorn.

I watched Jurassic Park at a drive in when it came out. Bringing your own food was the thing we did, and we cooked during the movie. It was a family or friends hanging out, or even a team thing for sports. Internet and cellphones weren't a thing. You poor children have none of this growing up, and it's sad. You learn a lot of cool tricks and hacks. Taking food into theaters was just common trade as going to a drive in, we didn't care when they said we couldn't. I do it to this day. You think some 17 boy is going to try to tell the middle aged guy with a plate of food he can't eat it there? They don't fucking care lol. Only go like once a year or two, but nobody gives a shit. I order the food to go and just walk into the theater in the middle of the day. Like an extended lunch break.

Maybe? Just throw a handful of kernels in the thing, two minutes in the nuke box and wa-diddly-la, le corn du pop. Season as you like. Works great. You have to replace the little paper discs in the base every 20-30 batches, but they're cheap.

Just bored wanting Shogun to start, and want some kettle corn recipies. Other than smoking, drinking, watching the news, or some cape shit, I have nothing to do for the next half hour or so.
>>20250089
Based, I'll get one, been wanting to experiment with some different flavor blends, but cooking popcorn can be a pain in the ass unless you have a solid setup.
Been wanting to expirement with a honey and fishsauce spray, pretty sure it would be really good if I got the blend right.

Butter is not the same as the fake butter oil. If you're going for movie theater taste, it doesn't compare. If you're going for real butter taste then yes, stick with real butter

I don't get the nutrition facts on popcorn. Why would they include unpopped values? Who eats popcorn unpopped?

[Anonymous No.20250168]

>>20250155
By law, they have to list nutritional info as packaged. You can add other info (see kraft mac and cheese) like when prepared as directed, but there are so many ways ro prepare popcorn, estimating that would be difficult

Fish, shellfish, seaweed, eggs, dairy, liver, turkey, beans, potatoes...
The soil was less depleted back then, so iodine levels in food were probably all higher. They didn't treat their water the way we do today so there was probably iodine in there, too.

>real melted butter just makes popcorn soggy
You have to simmer the butter until it stops sizzling, this way all the water is cooked off. Won't make it soggy this way and it tastes great.

[Anonymous No.20250209]

>>20250189
No, movie theaters stopped using coconut oil all the way back in the 90's during the retarded saturated fat scare. They just give the oil a coconut-like smell now.

There was this really good brand that Boy Scouts in my area used to sell, forgot what it was called but I haven't seen it since that thing vanished. Orville Redenbachers is the best alternative because the old guy makes me feel cozy while I'm eating cheap processed junk.

Wow I didn't realize this still existed. I got one from my hoarder grandma's house back in like 2006 and just assumed it was some insane 90s device that was already depeciated at that point. I just forgot all about it when I ran out of the paper discs.
