I had an air popper for awhile; I didn't like the popcorn plain at all. So
I used that 'I can't believe its not butter' spray--and sprayed the popcorn
as it came out. :-)

Though I don't use regular corn as a snack item, corn is probably my favorite
cooked vegetable [I know its a bit higher in carbs but it does still provide
some fiber.]

Why do you need a branded popcorn to microwave it?

Because some brands taste better than others. Fot microwavable popcorn, it's
partly the corn kernels and partly the 'stuff' in the bag that it's popped
in.  Popcorn brands can make a difference in a regular oil-based popper, too.

I dont need a branded popcorn for microwaving but it is easier than
finding space in my kitchen for a bowl suitabe for microwaving popcorn

Maybe I'm just a popcorn snob. :-)

I have a microwaveable popcorn bowl, actually,not sure what's different 
about it, but I've had it for about 20 years.

re #57
I found a couple good directions: one uses a bowl with a paper plate on top
and the other uses a brown lunch sack stapled shut
The brown lunch sack recipe had feedback and one person claimed theirs burned
up so they tossed it on the porch.  Here's the end result

resp:56 - you put the popcorn into the bowl and put the special lid 
with vents on top of it. Then you press the buttons with the numbers on 
the microwave and when it dings, you take the popcorn out.

Re 58> Doesn't the paper plate fly off during the popping?

  I usually take my popcorn to the gas station/milk depot. They don't mind.

  Sterling has some of the best milk around because it's usually still good
3 days past the expiration date. Try THAT with Kroger milk.

re #60
Dunno..haven't tried yet.  I suspect I'll try the brown bag method first since
the bowl method sounds like it requires 5 minutes longer
