OUCH!!! I love hot air popped pop corn, but hate any stated politics. With the butter try adding soy sauce for salt, and parmesan cheese just because lol. Thanks Maureen. A wonderful insight.

To no one's surprise, the Senate's concern about Climate Change doesn't interest the media - or POTUS - at all! Perhaps we all need more wine with the popcorn? Aloha! Rico
