American Pop Corn Company
Jolly Time Xtra Butter Microwave Popcorn
What it is
This is a convenient microwave popcorn product designed for quick preparation. It comes in individual bags filled with kernels, butter flavoring, and salt. The packaging is specifically made to be placed directly into a microwave oven. When heated, the kernels pop, and the butter flavoring melts and coats them, creating a classic movie theater snack experience at home. It's a simple way to enjoy freshly popped popcorn.
How people cook with it

To prepare, simply remove the plastic wrap from the popcorn bag. Place the bag in the center of your microwave oven, ensuring the 'This Side Up' or 'Open Here' instructions are followed correctly. Microwave on high power according to the time recommended on the packaging, usually between 1.5 to 3 minutes. Listen for the popping to slow down to a few seconds between pops, then carefully remove the hot bag from the microwave. Open the bag away from your face to avoid steam and enjoy.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to plain popcorn kernels, this product offers a pre-portioned and seasoned option. The 'Xtra Butter' variety specifically aims for a richer, more pronounced buttery flavor and a saltier taste profile than standard buttered popcorn. It simplifies the cooking process by eliminating the need for separate oil and seasoning.
Who it is for
This popcorn is for anyone looking for a fast and flavorful snack, from families to individuals.
How to keep the rest
Store unopened popcorn bags in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or heat. Avoid storing them near strong odors, as the kernels can absorb them. Ensure the packaging remains intact to maintain freshness until ready for microwaving.
