So, the only real design-related piece to this post is the popcorn fork, but I figured, while I’m at it, I might as well explain the very best way to eat popcorn:

  1. Use a popcorn fork (6 pack for $7) so you do not get it all over your hands. Yes, these are like training-wheel-chopsticks, but they make digging-in very easy. This is a fabulous tool because I love to eat popcorn while I’m working at the computer but I HATE to get butter all over my keys or constantly wipe my hands off. (The web-site claims it’s the “most unique eating utensil since the dark ages.” I’m not sure about that, but I’ll go with it.)
  2. Add M&Ms unless you want the chocolate to be all melty over your popcorn, in which case add chocolate morsels.
  3. Add raisins. Yes, I know you could just add Raisinetts, but I believe adding actual raisins allows you to claim you are eating fruit, just like ketchup counts as a vegetable in school lunches (because of Ronald Regan, or at least so my mom frequently claims).
  4. Light Butter popcorn also contributes to the illusion that you are eating a healthy snack.
  5. I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter Spray helps you get the butter taste you would get in Movie Theater Butter which you would have bought if you were not pretending to eat a healthy snack.

As Bill Nye would say, don’t take my advice, try it! (Or something to that effect.)
