steinman's gettin' all philosophical and shit.
My house has at least 20 bags of popcorn at any given time. My answer to your question: WITH PASSION! Popcorn.
Oh you must mean ALL OF US.
My feelings toward popcorn are like Homer Simpson's feelings toward donuts. I could eat it until I burst. I love the smell of fresh popped popcorn. I'd probably die if I ever worked in a movie theater because my cholesterol would go through the roof.
But I hate fake popcorn scent that's on scratch 'n sniff stickers and the like. Nastiness!

If you can get Buttered Popcorn-flavored alcohol, I don't see why you can't get air fresheners.

Popcorn flavored jelly beans were always my favorite. Its like I could smell it sometimes.
I like the pop corn that has caramel.
Don't buy caramel corn on sale though. A lesson I have learned very young. *Shivers*
You seem to have learned a lot of lessons very young.
Now that I'm back working at the theatre, being around it all day, nearly every day, I've grown tired of eating it. The smell of it popping as it starts to fall from the kettle, right when it's still it's warmest, is great. One of my all time favourite scents. When I come home and my clothes and hair smell like stale popcorn though it kinda kills it.
Conclusion, if you wanna continue loving popcorn, don't work at a theatre.

I feel like Ron Swanson and this guy would get along very well.
Pretty much with Steinman here, 70% of the dialogue was near gibberish to me.
I understood it....
That guy owns his Newfie stereotype and jokes about it. That is what I consider the Canadian national identity. Tongue in cheek self parody.
Popcorn doesn't come in a bag. If your popcorn comes in a bag, you're doing it wrong.
Maybe? Mine comes in a big plastic jug. In any case, if he's got 20 bags of of that laying around, he's got a serious popcorn problem.But...doesn't most popcorn come in a bag?
I meant boxes of microwave popcorn, which have bags of them in them. And I don't see it as a popcorn problem, more or less a popcorn solution.
On occasion I eat home-made popcorn made from kernels and my dad's home-made butter sauce. It. Is. AWESOME!

Having no popcorn maker and no microwave, I do my popcorn old school, in a sauce pan on the oven.
You had me there!Oh, I knew that was what he meant, it just made me think that even though I pop kernels the old fashioned way, they still technically came in a bag.
You know, I never really gave much thought to the possible difference in quality of microwave popcorn. I mean, it comes in a bag, you pop it in a minute and change (these days, I remember the good old days when it took 5 whole minutes to pop a bag of popcorn), sometimes it has butter flavoring and some salt, sometimes not. How different can it be? Then I bought a case of Orville Redenbacher's buttered popcorn at Costco and ate that brand exclusively until my 40 bags were gone (which took about 8 months), and then had some Act II "Butter lover's" popcorn... that shit is horrible! It's so dry and flavorless. Even if I add melted butter it's not as good as Orville Redenbacher's straight out of the bag with no additions. How can you screw up microwave popcorn?!
