So that's what it looks like

In our last CSA delivery (see this link) we received popcorn on the cob. I'd never used popcorn au natural before. For those of you who've only seen microwave containers or jars of the stuff, here is what it looks like:

Incidentally, my kids like it made with olive oil. Mmmmmmmm. How do you make yours?
OK I give up, how do I get the picture, not the link to show up?

Got it.

Howard, I think your image needs to be smaller than 500 pixels on the largest side.

Cynthia got it in one. :)

The forum software recognizes when a picture is too wide for the page, and rather than allowing it to "stretch" the page horizontally, substitutes a link instead.

You could use image-tweaking software to shrink its dimensions a bit, or if that's not convenient for you, Howard, let me know, and I'll perform the service at no extra charge. ;)

Thanks guys. Now I know. I've got the software so it's no problem Robin. Thanks for the offer, though.

I have seen that corn before and wondered about it. Can you put it into the microwave intact? What I'm wondering is if the corn would pop but remain on the cob or if it would fly off?

That's a funny image to think about Karen. I just did it in a saucepan with a little oil like I always do.
