Ingredients

0.5 cup unpopped popcorn
0.25 cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons margarine
0.5 teaspoon seasoned salt, or to taste

Instructions

Cut a paper grocery bag in half crosswise to use as a serving bowl and absorb excess oil.
Combine popcorn kernels, oil, and margarine in a 2-quart pot. Heat on high, shaking constantly until the first kernel pops. Then, cover the pot and continue shaking. When the lid lifts, remove from heat and hold over the prepared bag until popping stops.
Pour the freshly popped popcorn into the bag. Season with ¼ teaspoon of seasoned salt, shake to distribute, and taste before adding more.
