I use the Orville Redenbacher air popper… and use a small phone book (it’s the only reason I keep it around)… to sit under the front of the popper until the popcorn fills up enough to come out the chute…that tilts it back and prevents the problem of the uncooked kernels being shot out into the bag… I catch the popped corn in a paper bag… which I then add light tasting olive oil to and butter flavoring (powdered)… the combination of the two gives the impression of real melted butter… and hopefully is better for me.
