Well, maybe the Subject line got your attention. I just wanted to
vent a little and warn others of this potential problem. My 2 year
old Whirlpool microwave oven started producing a burning plastic
type of smell. I didn't notice it at the time, but it was always
when we did a bag of popcorn.

[snip looooong tale of woe]

There's a very simple solution: stop using your microwave to make
popcorn, and
get one of these instead:

It will pay for itself rapidly with the money you'll save buying
bulk popcorn
instead of those stupid little microwave bags. And it does a
waaaaaayyyyy
better job of making popcorn, too.

Don't eat popcorn, it's bad for you.

Absolute nonsense.

Buttered small popcorn at the
theater has about 3000 calories.

The problem there is the faux butter, not the popcorn. Popcorn is a veaery
low-calorie food.

That's why they have corn fed hogs I suppose.


Maybe you haven't considered that change of volume thing when you pop it?

You should consider the volume you eat, paper bags full.
