Answers:
there's a small aluminium based sheet under the bag, and it is covered with the kernels and some oil!. The aluminum helps make the oil heats really quickly, which in turn make the kernels pop!.
If you put it upside down, the aluminum shields the kernels and the oil from the microwaves, so they dont heat up much!.!.!. so no POP!Www@FoodAQ@Com
