Get a Back To Basics stovetop popper! using this method to cook popcorn (along with the assorted Back to Basics kernels, popping oil and flavorings) it's as close to the 'theater' as it gets!!! They also offer a caramel popcorn flavoring that is also delish!
I bought one of this machines for a friend as part of his Christmas present this past year, and after tasting it, went out and bought one for myself as well.
It takes a little more effort, but it is WELL worth it!Try it and enjoy!!!
