It works too!

Powdered Butter. Thats the trick!

at the movies, they use oil, its is a mixture of coconut oil with other goodies in it, it has a butter flavour. also you add salt to it, the salt is butter salt, so its very yellow and smells like butter. don't no how much butter would be in any of it at all actually.

The crap they put on popcorn in the movies is not butter, but the most unhealthy oil of all, coconut oil and flavors. Like eating a big mac times 3

it isn't butter.. Let your butter cool off just a little bit before putting on your popcorn and don't put on so much.

Don't pour it while it hot and don't pour it so close. Hold it high and then pour it.

my wife makes awesome buttered popcorn at home and it doesn't get soggy. she uses a layering technique right in the bowl. a little popcorn on the bottom, salt, a little butter, more popcorn, salt, etc. if you pour all the butter over a big mound of popcorn it only gets the stuff on top all soggy. it takes a couple minutes longer but it works! and tastes better than that crap they serve at the movies.

the butter ure using is too hot

The stuff they add at the movies isn't butter like the stuff you use at home. It's oil, artificial coloring, artificial flavoring, and chemicals.

dont add to much butter.

Try taking a very large bowl and adding SOME of the melted butter to it, rolling the bowl to coat it with the butter. Take a couple of handfuls of popcorn and put them in the bowl, and toss them like you would salad. That should coat the popcorn without ruining it. If you have a lot of popcorn, then move the tossed popcorn to your serving bowl[s] and repeat.

The oil stuff they spray on popcorn at the movies isn't butter!!! It has no butter flavor even to it. It is mostly transfat oil with some chemicals to make it yellow and sort of taste like butter. Besides it is formulated not to absorb into the puffs of corn.

When you do your popcorn at home get a little sprayer bottle. put the butter in it, put it in a pan of hot water so it will melt. then mist your popcorn with it. That way you won't get soggie popcorn.
