Nuke popcorn upside down? What would happen?

[uppityperson]

What happens if you microwave popcorn "this side up" down? I am stumped.

1. I am guessing it would not heat through

since the heat "plate" thingy would be on top, and heat rises.

2. Is that what that shadowy thing is? (peering into bag)

I was worried they started putting metal strips in the bag to trace it, like money or something. I guess that is why you are not supposed to try to nuke popcorn in a regular bag?

3. Well, the kernels wouldn't "come out" for one thing...

And you've heard of the expression "F*** up", right? Each popcorn packet costing quite a bit, wouldn't it be more fun just to throw $1.25 into the toilet and flush it? :D

4. Not when a moving friend gave it to me for free.

I'd hate to have confused kernels. Wonder if they have to turn it over in southern hemisphere.

6. No, you don't have to turn it upside down. Unless you are one of those

strange people who walk on their feet rather than their head.

Weirdos.

7. You pay $1.25 for popcorn?

:wow:

5. Then the terrorists win. n/t

Don't go against the rules set by the late Orville Reddenbocker.
