I usually buy the Jiffy pop, because I just have an electric stove. I have some bags of microwave popcorn. Can I put them on range and like shake it or something?

I don’t have a glass lid to keep popcorn from flying everywhere if I just dump it in a pan.

    One of the worst offenders for food transfer!

    Research suggests that people who regularly consume microwave popcorn have markedly higher levels of PFAS in their bodies. A study published in 2019 analyzed a decade of data about the eating habits of 10,000 people, which was collected by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention between 2003 and 2014. Blood samples from the study participants were also collected. The researchers found that people who ate microwave popcorn every day over the course of a year had levels of PFAS that were up to 63% higher than average.
