Whirley-Pop Stovetop Popcorn Popper

My family's not a big fan of microwave popcorn so I often made it on the stove in one of my big heavy pots. This was fine but not very practical as the stainless steel pot was too heavy to lift and shake properly to keep the corn from burning, ok so I'm a weakling lol.

I'd often complain about this and finally one day gave in and took a trip to Target to check out corn poppers. The hot air poppers in my opinion are too noisy so I didn't consider those. I wasn't comfortable with the grill style poppers so left them in the breeze. The dome style electric poppers were just too expensive. I know I'm picky about my popcorn but I finally made my eye to the Whirley-Pop Stovetop Popcorn Popper.

The perfectly sized steam vented ( lid) six quart aluminum pot has a built in crank style stirring mechanism /handle that helps you easily keep the corn moving while it pops so it doesn't burn, yahoo finally!

I add about a tablespoon of canola oil to the pot as its heating, add the recommended about of kernels and get the most fluffy freshly popped corn on the block in a matter of a few minutes. It beats microwave popcorn hands down anyday. No bitter black bits no unpopped kernels, it's a thing of beauty and a delightful healthy treat for the entire family.

I paid under $20. dollars for the Whirley-Pop Stovetop Popcorn Popper on sale at Target and it's already paid for itself many times over. It even came with a packet of Real Theater Popcorn too.
