RE: Jiffy Pop ! A Blast From The Past

in Silver Bloggers2 years ago (edited)

I love popcorn . Look at that! Quite fascinating. I really wonder who first came up with the idea. Just the look of it is enticing. Growing up my older sister would often prepare popcorn. I’d join in. We’d use a a deep pot, heat the oil, hurry to drop the kernels in and cover the pot. I alway loved the popping sound. We would dance to the rhythm of the pops. When mostly done, we’d carefully open the pot to remove the popcorn. There was often that one kernel that decided to wait until the pot was opened for it to pop and jump out. 😄
We'd then add salt but sometimes we didn't mix it well enough. We had to deal with some very salty popcorn at the bottom of the container. 😂🤣

Sort:  

I believe popcorn is nearly a universal snack.... don't you?

My older sisters husband likes it, but he doesn't like salt on his, only butter. WHAT ??? Popcorn without salt is not a finished product. LOL

When I add salt, (which on this kind and some microwave ones you don't need to because they have included it in the oil)... I would sprinkle a little, then shake the popcorn around in the bowl and add some more. I do melted butter the same way if I use it.

Dance to the popping.... I don't think I have ever done that.... but maybe next time 😄

Haha!! Lots of fast dancing movements with all that popping. It certainly is a universal snack. Ever been to the movies on an already full stomach? Though full, the smell of the popcorn just gets you. At the movies I do I mix of salty and caramel. That gets me popping. 😂🤣

Never had caramel at the movies. Haven't been to one in a few years. Use to, if I knew I was going near the early or late evening hours, I would not eat before I went and would let that giant bucket of buttered popcorn be my meal. Otherwise, I was probably going to want some anyway.

Just can't beat that movie popcorn !

🤣Haha!!! Can’t beat it at all. 🍿
