I love microwave popcorn. It’s easy to make, and tastes great! The problem is that traditional microwave popcorn is loaded with chemicals (PFCs, Palm Oil, Diacetyl).

That’s the purpose of this Ecolution Micro-Pop Microwave Popcorn Popper. It quickly and easily pops popcorn in your microwave without using the harmful ingredients that traditional microwave popcorn uses. No oil or butter is needed 😍.

Video of Me Using This Popcorn Popper

I’ve used microwave popcorn bags all of my adult life.

It wasn’t until I started paying more attention to ingredients that I realized just how bad the ingredients are in these microwave popcorn bags that I enjoy every night.

That’s when I decided to start cooking my own popcorn. I sat down to buy a more traditional popcorn popper, thinking I might have to buy an electric or stove-top popcorn popper and just use healthier oils.

I was surprised to stumble upon this Ecolution Micro-Pop popcorn popper that allows me to still pop the popcorn in the microwave.

Is this product easy to use?

Yes, this popcorn popper is very easy to use. I just measure out my kernels using the lid (which doubles as a measuring device) and then put it in the microwave and set the timer.

You can also add butter to the top of the lid and let it melt over the popcorn as it pops, but I don’t do this. Some people who do complain that the butter melting process can be difficult to perfect.

This popper is made from borosilicate glass, it is durable, temperature safe, and resistant to wear-and-tear. It doesn’t absorb acids or chemicals. Also, it’s BPA-free, hypoallergenic, and thermal shock-resistant.

What’s my verdict?

Overall, this popcorn pooper is a great way to prepare healthy popcorn at home. It is very easy to measure the popcorn (the lid acts as a measuring device).

One drawback is it does take a little practice to figure out the right amount of cooking time needed for your portion sizes. Not only does portion size affect this, but so does the power of your microwave.

Also, this device can only hold so much popcorn, so if you are preparing popcorn for a large family, you will have to do multiple batches. This, to me, is a minor issue because the same thing can be said about microwave popcorn bags.

My verdict is this product is a great buy for those of you who love popcorn but are committed to eliminating harmful chemicals and oils from your diet.
