popcorn the old fashioned way........
I mean really, I was thinking about it, my teenagers didn't even know there was another way to pop popcorn besides throwing a bag in the microwave and pushing the popcorn timer button....

There are many old ways. The oldest one is putting fine sands in an iron hemispherical bowl shaped utensil on the stove & stirring sand till it is uniformly hot. After that raw corns are poured in that & it is again stirred with a metal flat bar till all pop up . This takes about half a minute. After that the sand is filterd out by using a seive. In Indian villages mostly people do like this even today.

Yeah. You take a non stick pot place it on heat and pour about a tablespoon of olive oil on first then you add the desired amount of popcorn. Put the lid on and let it pop away. I was just as suprised as you when I saw this.

I remember making popcorn in a pot on the stove. It was a treat with some soda on a Saturday night...

Yes, I have. We had one of the long handled popcorn poppers you put over the fire and we'd make it in the fireplace!
