It also seems a bit surprising that people have enough microwave popcorn bags to need separate storage, just how much popcorn do people eat? What's wrong with a fruitbowl - full of fresh fruit - as a snack container?

It's so much better for you and it tastes a lot better. Really, popcorn is not rocket science. Sure, it's a controlled explosion but that's half the fun.

My boyfriend's big gripe about not having a microwave oven was the absence of popcorn. Believe it or not, he'd never made popcorn without a microwave. I introduced him to the kernels-in-a-pan-with-oil method, and now he's putting all sorts of spices in his popcorn, which usually turns out pretty amazing.

How cute!! Do they make one simial for kernal corn, the type you make yourself?? I like that kind better because then I dont have to have all that salt and butter on my popcorn! I get amazing popcorn from www.justpoppin.com My favorite is hulless popcorn... it's like the hulls never existed... and when my cousin - who has braces - and I watch movies @ my place, she can eat it too!! If someone finds one, lemme know. OMG! How cute!! Do they make one simial for kernal corn, the type you make yourself??

Buy a bulk bag of unpopped corn, and when you want popcorn just pour half a cup into a brown paper bag, fold the open end up and twist the corners to seal then microwave as normal. Flavour with as much salt or melted butter as you want or don't want and you can control how much popcorn you eat too ;) I actually think that microwave popcorn itself should be banned from the house.. there is just way too much salt and fat in those things and they are so overpriced too.

The few kitchen cabinets I have are all above my head, so I use those for dishes and other pans. Anyway, the white ice rectangular ice buckets are very neat and modern looking, and would work just as well on a regular shelf. Oh, and they're cheap, too. ;-) I keep my snacks, food packets, etc., in two rectangular white ice buckets–the kind that normally would go into the freezer–which slide very neatly into one of the 11.5 x 11.5″ cubicles in the modular shelf unit which is my kitchen pantry and pan storage.
