I’ve never fully understood how the ‘popcorn’ button on microwaves work (I’ve read different things that may or may not all be true depending on make/model), but my current one always runs for exactly 3 seconds too long and ever so slightly burns the popcorn.

It’s not burned enough to throw it out, but it does give a noticeable “burnt popcorn” smell that kind of ruins my day.

So instead of pressing “popcorn” and doing something else, I have to stand there and watch it to hit ‘cancel’ in time.

      I’ve seen those both on YouTube and at festivals. They’re pretty cool.

      Personally, I don’t even like opening a can of biscuits because of the ‘pop’, so I don’t know how I’d feel about using one of those at home. lol

      I do prefer to pan pop, but sometimes I’m just lazy and want to throw it in the microwave and only press one button.
