I think everyone at one time or another got that big can of popcorn as a Christmas gift.
What you didn’t this year?
I will bet you never had popcorn like this!
I think it is time you take matters into your own hands. Even if you haven’t popped popcorn old school, you may cheat and use the microwave stuff instead. Just saying. Keep in mind, popping the popcorn old school is so much cheaper and you know me, cheap, cheap, cheap.
