Why buy a POPCORN maker when I can stick in in a pan? Because you don't use any oil in a popcorn maker, this makes it that little bit safer with kids about plus it becomes a yummy nibbly HEALTHY SNACK that fills you up very quickly.The way most popcorn makers work is similar to a kettle, heating up a metal element and then spinning the drum (the bit not similar to a kettle). A cup of non plain popcorn has only 31 calories in it and costs pennies in a supermarket.
The popcorn maker I have is Prima Hot Air Popcorn Maker, good quality, no oil means no cleaning but alas there is one problem its noisy and quite large, oh well you can’t have it all. And I have no solution for the bits of popcorn that caught in between your teeth or maybe that’s just a problem I have.
