  • Question
    Can I make microwave popcorn, leave it in the bag, and serve it an hour later?
    Community Answer
    Yes, but it is going to be a little hard, a tad stale and not hot.

  • Question
    Can I reheat microwave popcorn in a microwave?
    Community Answer
    I actually have reheated popcorn in the microwave. If you have butter/margarine on it that moisture will heat up on the popcorn. I have actually got un-popped kernels to reheat and pop, too. But it was not as good as the first time.

  • Question
    How do I make my popcorn sugary instead of salty?
    Community Answer
    You would just add sugar to the popcorn rather than salt. You can also look into kettle corn varieties, as they are typically sweet.

    Can I open an Act II bag of kettle corn and microwave it in another container?

    Community Answer
    No, this popcorn is specially formulated to be microwaved only in its original bag. Using another container could cause damage.

  • Question
    My microwave just broke, but I have many bags of microwave popcorn. Is there another way to make it without buying a new microwave?
    Luna
    Community Answer
    You can make microwave popcorn on the stovetop by placing the bag in a covered cast iron skillet and heating it until the popping slows to one or two pops every few seconds. You may want to add extra butter for flavor.
