Hello all,
I would like to give a suggestion on popcorn for those going on the LID. I purchased a pop corn popper a long time ago and use it all the time when I make my own popcorn and have stopped microwave a long time ago. Its called a Whirley Pop Stovetop Popcorn Popper from this website: http://www.popcornpopper.com/index.html You can also get them at other stores thru out the US.
It actually makes the popcorn full and crunchy like its supposed to be like you get at a movie theater. You can buy corn any where but I buy it from them. I have tried all kinds of oils from coconut oil, Peanut and grapeseed to olive oil. I like all them. My kids like the coconut oil like in the older days at the movie theater. Because you are limited at the foods you can eat and I found it difficult to even go out with the family and having to eat out. I would make a lot of popcorn to snack on. This would keep my peace of mind that I would know there is no iodine in my snacks. I bought Butter salt and regular no-iodine salt. Both did not have iodine.
Check it out and think about it. Its better then a regular pan because it has vents to let the steam escape and makes the corn bigger and crispier.
Cheers,
Scott
