I'll take your word for it!
Ain't no way no how I'm bringing fish sauce into my kitchen :noway:4 -
Someone posted on MFP a couple of weeks ago, that you can pop it in a microwave safe bowl with a microwave safe plate that covers it on top. I tried that, and it works great, just as good as the brown bag. Plus you can eat it from the bowl. I spritz it with “I can’t believe it’s not butter” and grated Parmesan.0

Fish sauce is one of those ingredients that is good as just that - an ingredient. Don't smell it, don't pour some out on your finger and taste it. Just add a splash to your stir fry and trust that the multiple millions of people making and using it for centuries can't be wrong
Still not sure I'd put it on popcorn...3 -

I'm not either, but I admit I'm sort of thinking about it now.2 -

And when notoriously picky eaters are raving about your food don't tell them it is one of the ingredients.

Popcorn is a healthy snack. Even better if you are immune to sodium fright. I have a 50g (dry weight) bowl almost every day at 4pm. Today it was 60g. Yum.0

I do air popped pop corn (a big bowl. because why not....). I melt slightly less than 1 tablespoon of butter and then mix in seasonings and spices until its almost a paste....garlic powder, sriracha, salt, pepper, crushed red pepper...whatever I'm feeling and then toss it in droplets into the popcorn and shake it up. it's still a little buttery and the seasonigns stick, but it's not ridiculously unhealthy/1

There are smaller 100 cal bags of microwave popcorn. Can't get much better than that for a snack!0

This is what I do. A wee bit of coconut oil over the kernels, dump it in a brown lunch bag, fold the top over and pop it. Delicious!
PS: This is the only thing I actually use coconut oil for!

This is what I use, & I never add salt, but then I'm not a real salt person. With an air popper, you can add as much or as little of what else you want, if you want anything else. Flavour to taste, really.

Popcorn salt is great. Powdered like flour. It really changes the popcorn snack.0
