LOL! I’m waiting for the announcement that breathing cause cancer. I’m sure that’s forthcoming.

I’m sure it will soon be released that oat bran causes cancer. Maybe our heads won’t fall off before someone decides that! Lol!

It’s good popcorn and cheaper than microwave.

Donna,

You may be able to cook it a little bit longer if you add some oil and not wind up with so many uncooked kernels.

Jean,

I’ve never used grape seed oil but it’s certainly very popular. Enjoy the popcorn! 🙂

We will be patient and wait until we can get a teaspoon of olive oil. Have you tried grape oil? Thanks for sharing this great idea. We will load up on lunch bag sacks and get to poppin.

Lillian,

It is cheaper than pre-packaged microwave popcorn. Also, you control the amount of oil and salt. 🙂

Less expensive than the store bought kind!

Karen,

I’ve tried it without oil and the popcorn seems stale to me. So much of the oil gets absorbed by the bag that you only wind up with a little bit left on the actual popcorn. The difference is worth the calories, in my opinion. 🙂

It works just the same, but air popped! Try it both ways and see what you think. But I like the idea of olive oil (monounsaturated fat) rather than “vegetable” oil (polyunsaturated fat)!

Thanks, Nancy! It’s good to laugh! 🙂

Thanks, Joan! I hope you love it. I use olive oil so it’s a healthy fat combined with the wholesome goodness of corn which is a whole grain. Please let me know how it turns out for you! 🙂

I have a popcorn monster in my house but I hate her eating the store bought microwave popcorn all the time, just too many chemicals and really not a low fat/low calorie snack like you want for your kids. Can’t wait to give this a try. Pinned!

Tammy,

I’ve been lots of this popcorn and my head hasn’t fallen off yet! 🙂 Honestly, a lot of their warnings fall on deaf ears because they warn about EVERYTHING. I know it’s dangerous to drink anti-freeze and moldy food, but they do seem to carry things to the extreme.

The FDA just needs to put it out there.
