Battle of the Poppers
Updated: May 9, 2020
In the reviews I've been doing for popcorn, I always say that I prefer making popcorn in an air popper. That is mainly opinion. It was the first way I learned to make popcorn and I've been doing it for a long time now. This article is made for you so that you can choose the best popcorn popper for your standards. Now let's begin. Air Popper Pros - The only mess is the bowl (unless you use the measuring cup on the top to melt your butter.) - By not popping with oil or butter, it makes the popcorn healthier, and you can always put on butter by melting some in the microwave (preferably with olive oil.) - Air poppers don't take up much room, so they're easy to store. - It pops your popcorn faster than any other type of popper. Cons - The popcorn doesn't have that classic movie-theater style popcorn flavor. - You can't pop as much as you could doing stovetop or using an old-fashioned popper (which isn't much of a problem unless you have 10+ people over.)
- If you put any more than a 1/2 cup in, it'll burn the popper out. Pot on Stovetop Pros - You can pop as much popcorn as you have without anything burning out. - You probably don't have to buy anything except popcorn and oil. - You get that lovely stovetop popcorn flavor. - It's easy to learn and master. Cons - You can easily burn the popcorn. - You get a lot of unpopped kernels. - If you pour your popcorn into a bowl, that means more dirty dishes. Old Fashioned Popcorn Popper Pros - You can pop loads of popcorn. - They have that classic movie theater popcorn taste. - It's perfect for a home movie theater. - The cheapest popcorn supplies are only compatible with this popper. Cons - They take up a lot of space. - The popcorn is very unhealthy, so you shouldn't eat it daily. - It requires a lot of maintenance, and you have to know how to use it.
