If you want the whole movie theater style popcorn, it takes two things -- cooking in oil, preferably the orange coconut oil, and flavorcal. Flavorcal is the salt-flavor mix that the theaters use. You can get it on amazon, but since it is for commercial joints, you have to get a big milk carton container when you will want to use like 1/4-1/2 tsp for that size popper. It's about $10 a carton. You can buy them on amazon, or at restaurant supply stores, like if you have an Ace Mart Restaurant Supply nearby.
