Many years ago (approximately 1970), I had a first generation microwave oven. One day my wife asked me to make some popcorn. I told her that I didn't want to get out the popcorn maker, clean it when I was done, etc.

Microwave just like you would any store-bought microwave popcorn bags, stopping when there are 2-3 seconds between pops.
Open bag carefully, it will be steamy! Add toppings, such as a little butter and salt, close the bag and shake. Enjoy!

TV chef Alton Brown makes MW-popcorn by putting popcorn+oil+salt in a brown paper lunch bag, and zapping it as usual. This sounds easy and cheap and fun. But I worry that there might be dangerous chemicals in brown paper lunch bags. Any ideas?
