How to keep the rest
Store unopened popcorn bags in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the bags remain sealed to maintain freshness. Once a bag has been popped, it is best consumed immediately. Leftover popped popcorn can be stored in an airtight container for a short period, but it may lose its crispness.
