DailyDirt: Making Popcorn In Modern Times

Folks have been making microwave popcorn for a few decades now, but there are other ways to make popcorn. Some old school methods actually involve fire... Here are a couple serving suggestions for popping a few kernels.

• Movie theaters used to use coconut oil for making popcorn. And now, coconut oil is trying to regain a healthy reputation. Apparently, virgin coconut oil is okay in moderation -- and it's the partially hydrogenated coconut oil that'll get ya. [url]
• Popping a single kernel of corn with some lasers is probably not the safest or easiest way to make popcorn. Remember: do not look directly at laser with remaining eye. [url]
• As a reminder, making popcorn using cellphones was just a marketing hoax. It's also not possible to cook an egg using your cellphone. [url]

By the way, StumbleUpon can also recommend some good Techdirt articles, too.
