Popcorn!

popcorn is cheap, easy, and cheap. is good.

you need-

• oil
• popping corn
• salt
• pot with lid
• seasoning
• butter or spray oil

You puts the put on the stove, with about 2 T oil in the bottom. more or less...
You gets the oil hot enough that it swirls about nice-like and covers the bottom of the pot.
You dumps in about 1/4C of corn.
you swirls the corn around untill it's nice and ily and in a single layer on the bottom of the pot.
you covers the pot, and swirls it every once in a while once the corn starts popping.
you pulls the corn off the heat when the popping slows down, unless you likes the burned popcorn (blech)
you dumps the popcorn in a biiiig bowl, sprays with oil or pours on butter.
you sprinkles on salt, mixing as you goes, and seasonings, if you wants.
you eats it all and makes some more.

seasonings-
the packet from a box of mac and cheese- or part of it anyway
some ranch dressing mix
nutritional yeast (if you don't know, don't ask)
cajun seasoning! (on everything but choco cake, I swear)
random other spices
powdered tomato! (ick, ew, gross)
some of the stuff from inside a taco seasoning packet
more salt

if you feels like doing real work, you can make fresh caramel, or some other thick sugar syrup, and mix that in. I be too lazy. that be a monster clean up job, anyway.
