    Sam's Club, for both the popcorn and oil. But the corn and oil at a Sam's north of the Mason-Dixon Line: it's just a little bit better.

    Stokley's Creamed Corn and Quaker State 10W-40 ought to do the trick

    That’s why I’m asking. I bought an authentic movie popcorn machine for my theatre room.

    Oh we have one of those at work. You buy those packets that you just put the whole thing of oil and popcorn in the maker. You have to be careful not to overfill etc, so if you'd like the name of the company, say so, and I'll go look for ya.

    I used to have one of those stove top poppers with the stirring crank, a manual version of the automatic ones - it came with premeasured oil and popcorn and made some killer popcorn in about 90 seconds.

    Can't remember the name of it now since it was confiscated in divorce proceedings - that's what the boo man needs to get - some kind of mail order premeasured stuff.

    Your right. HOWEVER, you need to be sure the size is right. We have a smaller and a larger one here, and if you use the packet for the larger one in the smaller verision, you end up with burnt popcorn and oil and just a mess.
