Popping a Bag of Microwave Popcorn on the Stove

Yes. You can pop a bag of microwave popcorn without owning a microwave. Just open the bag, pour the contents into a pot on the stove, and turn the heat up. Add a little bit of extra oil to the pot, put on a cover (very important), and toss it around a bit so the kernels don't burn on the bottom. They'll start popping and within 3 to 5 minutes you'll have a nice pot of popcorn.
