popcorn experiment was a success!
I was runing a bit high but decided to ignore that and test away.
I put two tablspoons popcorn in a class caserol dish with one pat butter and about a teaspoon olive oil and nuked it with lid on of course for 4 minutes and made about two cups popped pocorn. Tossed on some salt and it was delicoous..somthing ive not had since dx. my pre bg was 93 one hours was 91 two hour was 92 three hour was 92 then i ate some bacon and eggs cause i was hungry by then..lol but rest of the day was the same 90-93 range So im pleased..i will try it again and test agin a few more times to be sure.

small..it could maybe hold 4 cups popcorn popped. It is pretty heavy for its size..i think its pyrex. Works great! KROM "jacquie" > wrote > What size is your casserole dish?

If it is Pyrex look on the bottom it should tell you the size. Did it have
it's own lid?

Here's the one we use at home (I found the Power Cup inserts very
inexpensively on ebay - and you can pop the corn without oil, although we use olive oil): http://www.amazon.com/Presto-04830-P...9523634&sr=8-2 Mine is over 20 years old and still going strong.
