@Alice Pro-tip from a big guy:
If you stick a straw through the popcorn until it's near the bottom, then pour the butter stream through the straw hole and slowly lift it back up through the popcorn, you'll get an even distribution of butter through the popcorn bag/bucket.
Consult your cardiologist before listening to my advice :)
@Alice
Back in the day we made our popcorn the old fashioned way, shaking a JiffyPop pan over the stove top burner. On an adjacent burner was a small pot for melting the butter*, for pouring over the popped corn as the last step. I suspect this “butter flavoring” comes out cold, which is just not right.
* AKA oleomargarine, which was touted at the time as better for you than butter, but of course that was a lie.
you can never have enough butter-flavored oil to put on your bigger than your head bucket of popcorn. goes perfectly with that 1 liter cup of coke. $30 well spent.
@Alice I think the boats go under ones head as one applies the artificial, butter-flavored topping directly to the popcorn in ones mouth.
In my experience, anyway.
"What is my purpose?"
"You dispense the "butter""
"Oh my god."
"Yeah, welcome to the club, pal."

You're my butter bowl
