Make homemade popcorn in just 3 to 4 minutes with the Nordic Ware 3-qt. Microwave Popcorn Popper. This popper is simple to use, and it creates a full bowl of fresh popcorn using just 1/2 cup of kernels. Because it doesn't use oil or artificial flavorings, this device makes popcorn that is tastier and healthier than bagged microwave popcorn or oil-cooked popcorn from a movie theater. You can also use oil or butter in this unit while you pop if you prefer the taste, or you can season the popcorn with your favorite flavorings, from caramel sprinkles to parmesan cheese, after it has finished popping. This handy microwave accessory can hold up to 12 cups of fully cooked popcorn, so you can prepare snacks for a movie-watching party or board game night. Using this accessory saves you money when compared to preparing pre-packaged microwave popcorn, and it is quicker than making popcorn on the stove. This popper is also highly efficient, so most of the kernels at the bottom get popped instead of becoming waste kernels at the bottom of the bowl. Made in the USA, this accessory is constructed of high-density plastic, which won't warp or crack even if you use this accessory every day. Air vents in the lid keep steam from building up and scalding you when you remove the lid. This popcorn popper comes with a 5-year manufacturer's warranty, and it is easy to hand wash with mild soap and water.
