Plain Vanilla Mom

A Perfect Movie Night

in family fun, reviews on 22/07/14


Ok seriously, what makes up the perfect movie night? Good company, maybe some good wine (for Mom & Dad) and of course good popcorn (ie. not burned).  Movie night isn’t the same without the popcorn. Some things just go together and aren’t meant to be messed with.

Pop Secret must know that (the part about not burning the popcorn) because they have come out with a free app called the Perfect Pop and it couldn’t be easier to use….

With your iPhone 5+ on iOS 7+, download Perfect Pop (“Perfect Popcorn”) for free on the App Store.

1. Put a bag of Pop Secret in the microwave and enter suggested cooking time from the packaging. Note: Perfect Pop is optimized for the deliciousness of Pop Secret popcorn only.

2. Turn up the volume on your iPhone. Point the phone’s speaker towards the microwave and keep within 3 feet.

3. Start the microwave, and then start the app.

No more relying on the popcorn button or guessing how many seconds in between pops. Pop Secret is serious about perfect popcorn, so the less you have to worry about, the more time you can spend enjoying movie night with your friends & family. Perfect Pop listens to the pops, waiting for the precise moment to let you know when your popcorn is perfect.

I have to admit this little app is pretty cool. Aside from being helpful it’s both fun & entertaining while waiting for the popcorn to pop. Which I might add is a true test of patience when you are 3 years old.

Who knew there was an app to help you pop popcorn? Every once in a while as a blogger I have a chance to try something really cool and share it with you. This is one of those times. It was just too fun to pass up! Besides, if your like me you could use a little help when it comes to not burning the popcorn.

IMG_9207You have to check out this out! If you haven’t yet, click HERE to get Pop Secret’s free Perfect Pop app. ……. Speaking of perfect, did you happen to notice Mr. C’s is only sporting one sock in the photos above or that there’s a spot on my kitchen floor that I totally forgot to photoshop out? Yup, that’s how we roll around here. Not too much perfect going on besides our popcorn (thanks to Pop Secret for that… and for sponsoring this post).

    what an odd odd app and yet totally awesome. I’d definitely use this if I just hadn’t figured out how to make the kind on the stove. mm popcorn
