What do you use to hold the package closed on a bag of microwave popcorn?!
Answers: I have the problem of the bag opening up while the popcorn is cooking in the microwave and its a mess to clean up, I have been using masking tape and it works most of the time.
I agree, I have never had a bag open. They do vent, however, and some, especially the movie theater butter, do get a bit messy. And we use a variety of brands.
But putting tape on seems to be a bad idea. The heat could cause some of that adhesive to get on your food.
Switch brands.
masking tape will work good. try use staples...not the thin ones tho
Wow...what brand of popcorn are you using? I microwave popcorn at work all the time and never have it open on me. I use orvell redenbacher kettle corn and it turns out great every time.
Don't put metal in your microwave.
I have to agree, with the former poster, I use Orville Redenbacher and its never opened up on me.
Not once.
I have used Act II and Pop weaver and Orville's microwave popcorn. They have never opened at home or in hotel room microwaves. Be more careful when you take off the plastic wrapper so you don't weaken the bag. (I even twist my bag, it helps make more kernels pop.)
