Place the popcorn bag in the center of your microwave oven. Ensure the 'THIS SIDE UP' or similar marking is facing upwards. Cook on high power for the time recommended on the package, typically between 1.5 to 4 minutes. Listen carefully for the popping to slow down to 2-3 seconds between pops, then stop the microwave immediately. Carefully remove the hot bag from the microwave, holding it by the corners. Open the bag away from your face to avoid steam.
How it differs from similar foods
