Microwave popcorn has become very popular in many homes because it is simple to prepare, a family favorite and healthier than most sugery snacks. Do you usually get the regular size bag for all to share or do you buy the mini size bags and let everyone have their own bag of popcorn?
I love the mini size bags, they are perfect for one person. You don't have to wait for someone to pass the bag or feel like you are eating too much. You have your own supply! They are also great for kids, you don't end up throwing away half a bag!

I've never seen the mini sizes - I am going to have to check into this because I do love popcorn and fix the microwave kind all the time but I usually end up feeding half the bag to the birds the next day.

I'm so glad that they came out with the mini bag because I could never eat a regular size bag by myself. I love the mini bags. They come in handy. When my nieces and nephews come over and I put a movie in I pop them each an individual bag, if I don't they will fight over the popcorn. And it only takes about a minute to pop.

I think they are great too! Really makes it easy for kids to enjoy popcorn without the sharing and fighting too!

I like the portion sizing in the mini bags. However, it's too salty and much more expensive than me air popping my own. I can get a 12lb bag of kernals for $5 and it lasts a year in my house.

Personally we always buy the Regular size ourselves. It just is more convenient to pop one of these up and then share it instead of doing one of the mini ones. They are usually cheaper in the bigger size as well. But there is nothing better than sitting down and watching a movie with a Cold Soda and some microwaved popcorn.
