I love my Whirly Pop! It actually makes a batch of popcorn faster than any other kind of popper. You can use less oil than the instructions say, and it'll still work well. You can also put butter and salt into it as soon as the popping stops, and turn the crank to distribute them through the warm popcorn. (You should wash it after that, though.)
I've had my Whirley Pop for a long time, and a couple of years ago the plastic gears on the lid broke. I wrote to the company, and they sent me a whole new lid for free!
Nice!
I love mine too. Had it for years.
Ben Lundy, they come with a warranty. Always read the warranty!
Ace Lightning my brother bought me one of those years ago and it really does work great I must admit
Sheila F, if you're a big popcorn fan like I am, this is the greatest invention since electric poppers - and it makes better-tasting popcorn than they do.
When I was young we would go buy vegetables every Friday night from a man up the road. He would tell us that on Friday night he would have popcorn and tomato juice for dinner. Every once in awhile when I'm feeling a little low I will have popcorn and tomato juice for dinner on a Friday night. It always makes me feel better.
IndigenousPotliquor awwww that so sweet
Aw, I loved this little story! Thanks for sharing!
Great story, love it!
Why specifically tomato juice? Sounds like a good combo, but I think I'd go with cream o' tomato soup, instead, made with milk, not water. A little grated cheddar mixed into the soup while it's hot. Hmmm, I think that might be dinner tonight.
I am feeling just that way today. No tomato juice, but a Blackberry Izze. Bon Appetit.
I love this
Thanks for all of your glasses opinions and the Whirley Pop love.
you should pin your own comments
You ever watch Wayne's World? That part with the "Suck-Cut" vacuum cleaner hair cutting thing?
Emmy's face and black glasses while testing this reminded me of Garth.
Irvin Martinez really, dude. if you gotta ask...the answer is ALWAYS NO. Be gone, little boy troll
I didn't even see his comment when I made mine, apparently hours later. Imagine being that unremarkable while fishing for attention, you may have made his day.
You don't wear glasses on your videos though. Do you only use them for like reading??
I bought the Whirly Popper a couple of years ago and after a lifetime of using different poppers this is hands down the best I've ever seen. It is quick and easy and leaves almost no unpopped kernels. I bought the stainless model and it is easy to clean up too. Using two tablespoons of popping oil and adding a bit of movie popcorn salt directly to the popper produces great popcorn. Last year at Christmas I gave one to each of our families and they all love them too.
Always feel a bit awkward when emmy says greeting beautiful lovelys......when im face deep in a bag of cheetos...... :3
While I was face deep biting into a burger
KevinEatsAll no shame! Lol
I was tokin a fat bowl 🙃
KevinEatsAll LOL!!
Also, slowly chewed and moved burger away and looked left to right in awkwardness
( wow, rip English, I don't know how else to put it into words 🤦🏻♀️ )
Emmy...my friend told me that Sonic has a pickle juice slushie - feeling adventurous?
Yes Emmy go for it!!!
Sounds good Ive had a pickle sickle before. It was weird but alright.
Sounds yum!
Yes! I've seen this advertised here as well. I'd love to see Emmy try one!
Pickle juice??? 🤢🤮
"We cook our popcorn in this thing. And this is called a pot." Savage 😏
The only problem is she used one of those things called a pot in her video too.
Great review! I read an article somewhere (perhaps Consumer Reports?) about popcorn. It said that the unpopped kernels really had to do with the freshness of the popcorn more than anything else. One might think popcorn could last forever, since it is dried, but it does not. It still contains moisture inside the kernels, which is what makes it pop. It dries out, and then it won't pop. Older packages of popcorn, whether they've been sitting on the grocery store shelves or our own shelves, do not pop as well. Fresher ones do. Thanks for the great video!
Erin Uber
Wow. I did not know that!
I keep mine in the fridge. That keeps it far fresher.
Using the Whirley pop really does decrease the number of unpopped kernels. You may well be right about kernels being too dry. But I do know the whirley pop does work.
I’ve had my Whirly Pop for about 5 years now and still use it whenever I’m craving popcorn! I love it!!
The only unitasker in my kitchen is a fire extinguisher, and I’ve never needed to use it.
Miss Karla Someone's an Alton disciple.
Leah Laushway, and you are as well, since you noticed it. And yes, I enjoy Alton Brown’s work also and saw his live show a couple of years ago.
Miss Karla
But he could still use it to roll out dough, pound out a cutlet or knock out a thug trying to break in when he was setting up his late night oatmeal to slow cook and be ready in the morning.....Oh bother!
Craig Chastain, I could also roll dough, flatten a cutlet, or thump a thug with a wine bottle, and I’m far more likely to having one of those in my hand already. ;)
Miss Karla
Ha Ha! Do doubt.
As an avid popcorn eater, I LOVE the whirley pop!! It''s super fast, every kernel ends up popped, and you save the steps having to slide the pot all around or pick it up and swirl it. Best thing to do is throw salt in at the beginning so it actually sticks and comes out all evenly salted...no butter necessary.
Ooo...good tip.
Kara Lee My favourite is to put a bit of seasoning salt in at the start (for the reason you stated) - and yes, no butter needed! So good. The seasoning salt adds a little something extra :)
I use flavacol to get the movie theater like taste! So yummy
I agree definitely! Putting the salt in with the kernels at the beginning is the best way. I find I don't even bother with butter this way.
No taste Difference, No look Different. As far a the glasses go... skip the white frame ones. Cheers.
Myles Yoshimoto I agree, all of the rest of the glasses looked great except for the white ones
I agree on the white frames, they make her face look washed out. She really needs something that stands up against her skintone.
Oliver Peoples or gtfo fellow eyeglass compatriots
Agreed, the rest looked great but the white ones were the wrong shape and colour to compliment Emmy's features, far too close together as well!
White glasses=Elton John, lol
You can also buy the butter flavor oils from your local grocery store and use that instead of regular cooking oil and put the popcorn salt in it and it will flavor your popcorn while it pops. That's how I always used my whirley pop
With this kind of popper is so much easy to do sweet popcorn without burn it.
Oh my gosh!! Complete flashback. My dad has had a Whirly Pop for at least 30 years. When that thing came down from the highest cupboard my sisters and I would get so excited! I will never forget the first time I actually got to crank the handle! My dad LOVES popcorn and this thing just sits out on his stove now!
Emmy: I’m not a fan of unitaskers.
Me: I know Alton
I could see it being used for some other things too, maybe sauces or custards, or toasting Sesame seeds, or other seeds or nuts.
Or a recipe that says continues stirring....like the no bake chocolate oatmeal "cow pies" cookies
I don't like one-function kitchen gadgets either, but I *love* my air popper.
popcorn made on the stove like that is so much better than microwave or a popcorn popper!!!😋💕
Brian Landers oh I know, it tastes so much more corny, and real butter and salt and sometimes a little Parmesan cheese-the salt, yummy!!!
Try making a pot dry, no oil. You need to keep it moving or some kernels will toast on one side and not pop, but it works pretty much as well as with oil. The gadget would probably be perfect for dry.
Microwave? I don't have many good things to say about it, it's fun to watch, the smell is inviting.
Brian Landers what in the world is low-fat oil? 😂
Yeah, no such thing as low-fat oil.
I grew up popping corn in a cast iron skillet, with a dome-type lid to give it room to bounce around. We always put the oil in first, with a single kernal. As soon as it popped, we dump in the rest of the corn, and put the lid on. It starts popping very quickly, and we shook the pan the whole time it popped. When popping slowed way down, we stopped and dumped it into a big bowl immediately. Can't let it sit in cast iron, it holds the heat, the corn will burn.
I don't use microwave popcorn, they put all kinds of bad crap in it. I do have an air popper that works great, got it for $1 at a thrift store.
jbeargrr, Yeah, the oil/corn together, I didn't get.
Sure, I mentioned "dry," but oil or dry, it seems adding popcorn to a hot skillet (etc) works best, dry, oil, no matter.
Emmy, I love your’ channel. You’re so upbeat and well spoken. Bubbly, lively attitude gives me joy. Love these reviews and comparisons. Keep up the great work!
Thank you!
I love the last sun glasses, very Hollywood. We have a Whirley Pop, type, for the RV. We use it on the camp fire, no flame, just red hot coals, OVER a grate. So much fun. It does stay out in the RV.
I have a whirly pop, I love it! I got it at a second hand store about 4 or 5 years ago, I've used both butter and oil, I've even emptied one of those microwave popcorn packages in to it when I didn't have a microwave, it popped really good
Yay! I was watching some reruns of your older videos when I got your notification. So glad I'm on time!
Never a ‘let down’ after my day....thanks for the smiles, Emmy!
I have one of those and love it! My favourite thing to do is melt butter and (cane) sugar in it before adding the popcorn kernels. It makes the most awesome caramel corn 😀
I have made it the way you describe too, but the caramel is a lot thicker and sweeter. It's a completely different taste. When I make it in the kettle, you just get a thin coating and it is just slightly sweetened... You can eat a lot more without getting sick haha. And yes, it can very easily burn. I would be lying if I said I haven't messed up and let it go too long, you really have to stay on top of it the whole time. For me personally it's worth it though, the flavour is incredibly addictive!
My grandma gave me one of those when I moved to my first apartment and that works like magic and make popcorn more fluffy and delicious, oil and a lil bit of butter and that will make popcorn just amazing.
Hi Emmy, I just love your videos.
You are not like most UA-camrs now of days, you give our fans the best experience of what the product is.
I just that you should know that!
Love the videos! Thank you for taking the time to show how it compares to a conventional pan.
Emmy, have you considered doing a DIY Korean Bibimbap? I'd love to see you tackle it! (Also because I'll probably trust the recipe that you choose to do.)
I literally had to go make popcorn while watching this.
This is exactly what I wanted to see, in a demo between the WHIRLEY POP and a regular pot, thanks! 😃
Love comparisons like this, thank you Emmy!
I have one of these and I enjoy it. They also say not to clean it every time just wipe it out with a paper towel because it'll season the pot over time similar to cast iron. For anyone with an electric stove pre heat the element before you put the pot down, it helps make it go fast. I still wish I could find a decent air popper, the one I had before died and it was great.
Kenneth Rose I love air poppers too I have a miniature one that looks like the Popcorn Poppers in movie theaters love it
Kenneth Rose I have an Orville R. microwave air-popper from Walmart. Got about 12 yrs. Tastes like regular air-popped popcorn
Emmy please demonstrate how to make homemade kettlecorn.
I just add sugar to the butter.
Start with a little extra oil, dump a 1/4 cup of sugar and a teaspoon of salt in the pot as soon as it starts to pop and spin away. So yummy and easy!
I used to drive by the local movie theatre just to buy popcorn on the way home from work. “Pop, pop, pop!”
Pop, pop, pop!! Yummy, I love fresh popped popcorn too! That thing was faster than microwave popcorn too!
I love the round tortoise shell ones!
I like my West Bend Stir Crazy popcorn maker. To make movie theatre popcorn you need Flavacol butter popcorn salt.
I have worn out more Stir Crazy style popcorn makers than I want to admit (including at least 2 real ones).
If you are wearing them out then you should probably look at a commercial one like these - www.gmpopcorn.com/products/product-classes.cfm?catid=1&classid=1
Yeah, saw a program about some boutique popcorn farm and all the different ways popcorn can be served (Korean hot oil and chives... who knew)...
Anyhoo, Stir Crazy could underwritten the program as they were everywhere. And after getting one, I can see why. Very smartly designed. It may be one-note, but it does that very, very, well.
quintessenceSL oh yum...
I'm not young, so I've had a lot of years to wear them out. Plus, given the smaller size and much lower cost I'd rather keep using a Stir Crazy style popper till it dies then buy a new one. I still haven't spent what one of those oversized commercial ones costs (even the smallest one).
I love the last pair of glasses you put on!! Thank you for always making such quality videos!
It's so easy to binge watch your videos Emmy!
Just before I watch it: Emmy, have your heard of the popcornloop? It is a product introduced in the first season of the German version of Shark Tank and got quite successful. But still I wonder if it is really better than just doing it in the standard way.
Now that I've seen the video, the popcorn basically solves the problem you describe in the end. It makes a normal pot into a whirley one whenever you want to make popcorn.
My husbanwaiting and I were sitting here eating popcorn out of our whirly pop kind of pot. So happy you did not give it shame, such a wonderful machine if you eat popcorn like us...we're actually famous in our neighborhood for popcorn, which we make batches and batches of on friday for movie nights!! All out of one pot! (ours is called the "pro popper" but same idea) It's really wonderful! We've had our pot for about 6 year and we bought it at Savers for $3.99! Popcorn lovers unite!!
Yes!!!
I love my Whirley Pop! One of the secrets over the regular pot is the vent to let steam out.
I have a spinner popcorn popper and it has made BUCKETS of pop corn. I crank the heat to high and warm the oil first. Then, add the 1/2 cup of kernals. In less than 2 minutes, we have the best popcorn! Salt and butter to taste. It is a uni-tasker. And, one of the few uni-taskers that we own. But, it fits on top of the cupboard and is used frequently. Best of all, it was a gift! Best price ever! Love your vids. Thank you for sharing a part of your day with us!
Do you think you could make praline candy in the whirly pot? I know it calls for constant stirring
calamitasCorvus bummer...thanks for the response 🤗
Try popping your corn in bacon grease😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋
Oh, my. I've never tried that...sounds delicious. 🤗
Bacon flavored popcorn is Delicious!! :D
I tried olive oils flavored / infused with different flavors: Chili was the best, enough heat that anyone can tell, but not hot enough to keep them from coming back handful after handful. Bacon grease, a guilty pleasure I need to try.
It's also good popped in clarified butter, which has a higher smoke point than most cooking fats. Popcorn cooked IN butter. 2 birds 1 stone.
Victoria Leitch
I tried it. It's good but a bit too heavy. Try Olive oil instead of butter. It's DELICIOUS
Things I have done since I got my Whirly-Pop:
Made clarified butter kettle corn.
Used beef tallow as oil (sparingly!) and seasoned with a beef ramen noodle packet.
Mixed clarified butter and coconut oil, colored with annatto and seasoned with fine salt.
Bacon grease and seasoned with alder smoked salt.
Used oil with a touch of chili oil (don't breathe the steam!) and sesame oil, seasoned with Chinese five spice powder.
Olive oil, seasoned with parmesan cheese and rosemary.
Pop in oil but season with brown butter and Himalayan pink salt.
All of these could be done with a pot, sure, but I love the speed and ease of the Whirly-Pop. You never have to wash it unless you make kettle corn in it. You just rinse it with hot water and wipe it out. Anyway, I am a big fan of mine. Your mileage may vary.
These sound like some real popcorn innovations! I have never dreamed of BEEF POPCORN! I happen to have a jar of home-rendered tallow, too. Annato oil or annato lard ("achiotina" in the store) sounds GREAT. Well, a little something to look forward to.
Hello from Texas! My hubby and I love our Whirly. Pop we have had ours now for a full year ! Got it at Bed Bath and beyond . It makes great popcorn 🍿 and yes I still use a pot when I don't feel like using the other. Love all the styles of your glasses! I wear them myself.
Emmy! You can roast coffee in that too!! Guildbrook farms did it :)
💡Brilliant!
Oh, I never thought of that! I've roasted my own coffee before, in the oven.
Or peanuts?
anyone else like eating those half popped kernels?
Ben Apples with a passion!
I think you can buy cans of those. They're called PopNots.
Ben Apples
Yes. They are so good! I thought I was a weirdo (well I am) but I'm glad to know other people like them. They remind me of Corn Nuts.
Yeah. There is another brand called Halfpops too. I think they have a larger distribution chain (Target, Whole Foods)
My parrot loves them!!
Homemade popcorn and movie night at home is like one of life's simple pleasures. I love it so much!
Used to have one of these pots when my kids were young. They loved cranking the handle. Such great memories!
My mom had one of those and it was a pain in the bleep. Cleaning it sucked. Good ol' air pop is the best.
You're only supposed to wipe it down with a paper towel.
GamingInvader yes that's what my brother does and he's been using his for years and he loves it
The theaters use coconut oil to pop their popcorn gives it that signature movie theater popcorn flavor
Bryce Solar, coconut oil has no flavor, it's the salt and artificial butter flavor that makes movie popcorn taste the way it does.
Coconut oil is better for you, but it won't taste like movie corn.
I'd rather put real melted butter on mine, anyway.
They also use Flavacol.
They use peanut oil
I love fresh popcorn. My favourite way of serving is to sprinkle black pepper over when it's still hot from the pot.
i love the white frames and the sunglasses! looks great emmy! :)
You know you're early when you've read the description but have nothing to copy and paste to comment because Emmy hasn't added it yet :v
When you were trying out glasses, I've been verbally answering you :x
Popcorn always tastes the same when there's no flavouring on it... :P
The oil is the flavoring. I've had great results with just canola oil and salt.
@@ortzinator You have low standards for what constitutes "great results." Canola oil is practically flavorless, so the only thing you'll taste is salt. In addition to salt, popcorn should also have a butter flavor, which only comes from butter or the chemicals in butter that are responsible for the buttery flavor (diacetyl and acetoin).
Congratulations on 1 million! Been here since the bugs Christmas lol so happy for you!
So funny! I did not see the title. I was eating pop corn when I clicked on this video. I love it.
I want one of those, works well for the Amish.
Out of curiosity, what is your profile pic?
It is a pentagram with 2 faries
If you're Amish... How are you on UA-cam???
Great Value Bleach, read the comment again, I never said I was Amish. I said it WORKS WELL for the Amish.
The Amish grow some darn good popcorn, too. They have a variety that only pops in balls. Tastes just as good as O. Reddenbacher.
Emmy, did you leave the label on that popper when it was on the burner? Looks a little singed at the end.
My gram had one of these when I was growing up!! Thanks Emmy for bring back good memories ♥️
I loveeee the first brown tortoise round frames!! And the sunglasses look awesome! I also love the black squarish frames you put on after the first pair of sunglasses! Loved this video😁
I like pot
I mean.. the stainless steel pot..
Lmao
Yummy que rico 😉👍
I grew up with the whirly popper. I LOVED IT! Cant find one here. Was a great time with my dad on movie nights popping paper grocrey bags full of popcorn!
Hi Emmy! 🤗 I hope you are having an amazing day, I love your video's so much they really make my day.
Thank you and you keeping on shining. ☀️
Cool you tested and liked the popper but what will you do with it, if you're not keeping it? Also I'm a fan of whatever glasses you like. Your glasses gor your face, just be happy and comfortable! 🍿👍😄💚
I'll be giving the popper (like all the gadgets I test) away on my social media.
emmymadeinjapan very cool! Thanks for responding. I'm glad it will go to some one who will enjoy it 👍😄
the only way to make fresh popcorn is in a big pot on the stove! I know what I'm doing tonight!
Me too.
I love popcorn.
Thanks to you Emmy, I have gotten my Elliot glasses and have been wearing them for almost a year now.
We use the same pop corn popper and have been making our own popcorn for years. I was so excited to see this in your video. congrats on 1M!
Pop the corn and feed the children!
I SOLD THAT TO YOU!!!!!!!!
Natalia Miller
That's cool!
Back at it again with another good review also every last one of those glasses look great on you!
Why, thank you. 😊
I liked the tortoise frames and the first pair of sunglasses. Love your channel, Emmy!
OK 4 views 7 comments. UA-cam math confuses me
Ray Walters same people commented several times
I think the view count lags behind the actual view number sometimes.
We love our whirly pop! it has ruined us for bag popcorn. that stufd no longer has a place in our house :) We do have a larger kitchen, so we don't worry about storing it. for me it isn't about the taste or texture, as it's the same with a pot, for me it's the time! We usually have a lot of people over for movie nights, so it's faster to make multiple bowls and still have them be hot for everyone!
Ray Walters maybe there are Patreon backers whose comments are added but views aren’t counted when they are early? Just guessing.
I love that first pair of red glasses, those are my favorites!!
And now I’m just really craving popcorn, if only it weren’t almost midnight right now
My wife got me this popper about 8 years ago and it is the greatest way in the world to make popcorn. I absolutely LOVE IT.
I have had one that belonged to my mother and I am 74! The popcorn always comes out fluffy and warm. I wouldn't trade my 42 year old one for anything.
Marilyn Warren
I love my whirley pop! Making it in a pot is easy but I like the stirring action of the whirley pop, feels like it keeps the kernal more evenly cooked.
I bought one of these at a garage sale that had never been used. I like it fine. The handle gets harder to turn as the popcorn pops but it turns out fine. I use brown butter on my popcorn. Delish!
Awesome video. I love popcorn. I liked the 3rd pair of glasses the best
My grandma gave me a whirley pop when I moved away for university and I love it! It makes good popcorn and is pretty easy to clean c:
Yaaas I’m so here for the sponsored episodes! Get that success.
My mom has had a Whirly pop... my mom makes kettle corn in it! I loved making it and watching her make it in it as a kid
My mom had a whirly pop for years. She made tons of popcorn and she loved it.
I remember as a kid mom would buy pre-packaged popcorn pouches. They came with two attached plastic sections. One had the popcorn and salt and the other side had a yellowish gel that looked like butter. Just put them in a pot and go. They were pretty good; the oily stuff gave it a nice buttery flavor.
I grew up with a whirly pop and it’s Very fun for older kids to help make popcorn with ! We used it all the time for movies and snack time. 🍿and for glasses 👓 I’d say go bold! I got a fun red frame and I love em. I think they all look nice though 🤓
I am one of the cooks that love gadgets but feel anything should have more uses than one to be worth the space and investment it requires. I always try to figure out multiple uses for each gadget. This popper looks so fast and easy that I thought it could be worth the space it takes. Perhaps it could be used also to make croutons, just figure out a right temperature and give the spiced bread cubes whirl every couple of minutes. It would be easier than making them on a baking sheet and opening a hot oven door to toss the cubes around. I am sure there would be other ways to use it also.
Emmy, you are the best gadget tester on the net with your fluent language skills and calm voice. It is a pleasure to listened to you, I feel it is almost like ASMR.
I love it for the vintage look and found one similar in a thrift store, it works great.
Emmy! Thanks for doing this one ☝️. I have been debating about buying one of these. :)
My Nonna had a Whitley Pop and we used to use it over her brick oven in the backyard. It was my favorite thing to do!
I liked the ones right before the folding ones. Also, I am happy that you showed making homemade popcorn because sadly, I never have and I’ve been wanting to recently!
I have a Whirley Popper snd I love it. I also have a very small kitchen and I think it's totally worth the space it takes up. It's fast and almost every time it pops all of the kernels. So worth it!
I have one of these, bought it a few years ago, and I really like it. It does make popcorn pretty quick but it does definitely take up a lot of space for it being a uni-task item though.
Also I have to admit when you said it was loud pouring the kernels in the Whirley Pop I was excited because I thought I was the only one! Haha
now you have me craving popcorn. gosh dang it emmy!
Ive owned one of these for years. Have enjoyed making a lot of the different recipes
The second set of round glasses with the slightly whitish frames are my favorite of the bunch Emmy!
i really liked the third pair on you!! they were cute but still seemed to be a comfy fit!!
