I love popcorn but in general, it has to be hot and fresh. I once had
people over so had to make a very large amount. I kept it in my turkey
roaster in a slightly warm oven. They thought it was freshly popped but I
had popped it over an hour prior. And I once had someone serve me some of
the stuff that you buy on the chip aisle of the grocery store. I was amazed
that it tasted good. I wouldn't think that it would.

The cold pizza though... That is the only way that my daughter and I like
it. It's okay slightly warm. But we don't like it hot.
