Microwave popcorn might seem like an ultra-convenient option for making this tasty snack at home, but if you want a more authentic tasting popcorn, or a healthier popcorn, then cooking it on the stove is the best way to go.

If you are a fan of popcorn, there are several ways you can make it at home, giving you access to fresh and delicious popcorn whenever you like. Popcorn made at home can be customized in terms of flavor and nutritional value to suit your preferences, and making popcorn out of kernels rather than buying ready-made popcorn usually works out to be much more cost-effective.
