If you pop a bag of excellent microwave popcorn, how much do you usually eat right away?

[highplainsdem]

Inquiring guilty minds want to know.

[Shrike47]

1. All of it, of course.

[Haggard Celine]

2. All of it.

[TreasonousBastard]

3. The whole thing.

[MLAA]

4. There is no option, you must eat it all. Read the instructions!!

[yellowdogintexas]

24. I think there is some sort of rule about that, isn't there? nt

[MLAA]

26. I'm sure of it! And I wouldn't dream of breaking a popcorn rule!

[whistler162]

33. Planetary Law 68c311

If you break it you are deported

5. Every kernel.

6. Popcorn is KETO friendly

Especially if you use real butter and not flair.

17. Gotta watch it though, a very carb rich vegetable and it can kick you over the daily limit.

.

But, there is good news.

I've been doing a Keto-16 for a while and I found that once I am in ketosis, I can have a cheat meal once a day or two and it does not kick me out of it. Granted I'm on an 18-6 fasting regiment and sometimes OMAD, but it's pretty interesting. If I totally blow out of it, I can feel the slight flu kick in and then immediately out of it under an hour. Switching back and forth briefly. Every couple of weeks I do a 2-3 day fast. The 18-6 is the range when autophagy really kicks in and also when the body develops HGH, so that's a daily thing for me. This is especially true as I am in my early 60s. The 2-3 day fast is to really kick in autophagy and perform extra housekeeping. Within the first 6 months of doing this, all the floaters in my eyes disappeared.

I chose the 16 Carb daily limit because everyone's body is different and this varies with your current weight. So, for me 45grams daily should keep me in ketosis, but everyone will be in ketosis if they are eating 16gs or less of carbs a day. This way, you never have to test yourself, unless you blow out of it and want to verify you levels.

29. Yep, I'm doing OMAD with periodic fasting

I was doing a 44 hour fast every week {Fri 4pm to Sun noon) but fell off of that. I need to get back to that as that is when I felt the best.
I occasionally did a three day fast and that is when I healed the most. Sores would heal and I had lots of energy that last day.

7. I haven't found a great microwaveable popcorn

but when I go to the movies I order a medium bag and eat the whole thing. Despite being a medium bag, it’s a ton of popcorn.

[Bev54]

9. Me neither, I still use my hotair popcorn popper and add my own butter or seasoning

The grandchildren love it, because they only get microwave at home.

[highplainsdem]

10. This is Orville Redenbacher's Movie Theater Butter popcorn, which I hadn't tried

till recently. I like it more than other brands and flavors I've tried, which I found so disappointing I hadn't bought any for years.

Decided on a whim to pick up a 3-pack. Ate the first one all at once. Told myself I wouldn't do that with the 2nd bag. Failed miserably.

OTOH, after reading the replies here, I'm feeling a bit less guilty...

[highplainsdem]

13. Found a review, a taste-test comparison, from about 5 years ago:

14. I'll have to give the Orville Redenbacher a try.

I don’t believe I’ve ever had it. Now I’m hungry for popcorn! Lol.

[Xavier Breath]

20. At the theater I frequent

only the "small" comes in a bag, with both "medium" and "large" being tubs of varying size. I try not to consume the entire thing because it is a lot of popcorn, but I do ask for layered "butter" on it, so I get another butter layer halfway through the bag.

It's crazy how large the containers are for movie concessions. The large soda looks like a small oil barrel.

25. see posts below regarding silicone popper - you will never look back nt

[Kali]

31. I pop mine in brown paper bags, melt real butter on the stove

WAY cheaper and no fake chems

I think you can even make cloth bags, but as often as the paper ones get a little crispy, I would hesitate to reuse cloth.

[SheltieLover]

8. Every. Single. Piece.

[wcmagumba]

11. I have one of those microwave poppers that works well for me, use movie pc salt and sprinkle butter.

Not this brand but cost and appearance are the same. I put a little veg oil in the bottom and use the low fat sprinkle butter...tastes good to me, and yes I eat the whole thing...

[yellowdogintexas]

23. so do we. I have given 15 of them as gifts.

I love that thing. Fabulous popcorn, no chemicals and saves so much money

Have you sprinkled a bit of sugar on it? Instant Kettle Corn!

Have you tried popcorn with different colors?

Years ago we used to buy a brand called Black Jewel which is grown in Indiana. It pops white but the kernels are black & white. That stuff is so good! Smaller kernals with less husk.

WINCO has a mix of various colors in the bulk section.

12. Just as one sleeve of Fig Newtons is a portion.

[Iggo]

15. All.

[TygrBright]

16. You're joking, right? n/t

[Shermann]

18. Can you really save part of a bag for later?

This does not compute.

[highplainsdem]

32. Well, it's supposedly 2.5 servings per bag, with each serving 5-1/2 cups.

I ate all of it. Only a couple of hours after my usual large breakfast (a cup of cottage cheese with half a cup of blueberries, a bowl of oatmeal, a large banana, orange juice, milk, coffee). I shouldn't have been hungry at all, but I thought it might be nice to have a snack before lunch. Was actually planning to have only a few cups of popcorn, not...14 cups? It more than filled a fairly large bowl.

And I ate a smaller and later lunch than usual...

[whistler162]

34. Me, Myself get a full serving

I will get short changed.

[Lettuce Be]

19. All of it, naturally. This question confuses me

Doesn't matter the size of the bag or bowl, I'm having all of it. Thanks for asking.

[IcyPeas]

21. same answer if you microwave your popcorn or if you buy a bag of popcorn....

you eat all of it. I am so addicted to this. freakin' expensive though!

[electric_blue68]

28. This is sooo good. 😄🧡

[yellowdogintexas]

22. There is only one answer: all of it either by myself or with Mr YD

and now that I have the amazing silicone popper it is 10x better than the kind in the cellophane bags

[Skittles]

27. I am confused

there are people who don't eat it all?

[Luciferous]

30. I have an air popper and I eat it all right away
