The Real Home Made Microwave Popcorn Recipe

It really works!

To Make your OWN microwave popcorn you need:
brown lunchbag
popcorn kernels (whatver cheap kind your local store sells)
stapler with staples

1. Open the bag
2. Cover the bottom of the bag with popcorn. Some kernels may rest on top of each other, just make sure that the entire bottom is covered with corn
3. Fold over the top of the bag and staple it. Yes, the staple is metal, but it won't spark.
4. Place in the microwave on its side
5. Cook for however long your microwave takes to cook pre-bagged popcorn.

It takes any where from one minute and 45 seconds up to 3 and a half minutes to pop a full bag depending upon your microwave.
