Baked potato. I rubbed olive oil on the skin of a large-ish red
potato and baked it till it was done. I split it open and dressed it
with roasted garlic, capers, and anchovy butter.

Sweet dreams.

I love old fashioned (on the stove, in a pot) popcorn with parmesan
sprinkled over it! Air popcorn makes me think I'm eating styrofoam
packing peanuts. Ugh.

Reminds me of a time long ago and far away - Sunrise Drive-In - my date gulped
down all of her giant bucket of hot buttered popcorn and then she began on
mine, from an unadorned bag in my lap... so I secreted a hole in the bottom of
the bag and wasn't too very long she swallowed my butter too, and then being
the little piggy she was she proceded to swallow every last buttery kernel.
True story. The demise of the drive-in is so sad... in fact I've not been to a
movie since... I hate movie theaters, they'd have to pay me to attend.

Wait.. you need to ease on back slowly Pop the corn in oil and leave
the butter off. That's a great compromise, in my book.

Try spraying with the fat-free "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" pump
spray, and toss the popcorn well after spraying. It's actually pretty
good, and a better alternative to nothing.

But parmesan works too.

Usually 4-5 sprays, but still a lot fewer fat grams than most anything
else.

I can't say that I blame you, and occasional butter is not going to kill
you. I eat it every now and again.

Agreed! Also good on steamed veggies with some other seasonings like garlic or
whatever floats your boat.
