How to Deal with Unpleasant Odors from Microwave Popcorn

Hey there, popcorn lovers! I'm Christopher Rolfson, the Houston-based popcorn enthusiast behind Kernel Kravings. Today I'm here to talk about how to deal with an issue that's all too familiar for us popcorn aficionados: unpleasant odors from microwave popcorn.

The smell of freshly-popped popcorn is a thing of beauty, but the lingering smell of old popcorn not so much. To deal with the odors from old popcorn, the first thing you should do is clean your microwave. Make sure to wipe down the walls and ceiling of the microwave, as well as the bottom of the microwave. This will help to remove any lingering odors.

In addition to cleaning the microwave, you can also invest in some odor-fighting products. An air purifier is a great option for neutralizing odors, as is an odor neutralizing spray. These products can help keep your kitchen smelling fresh.

Finally, be sure to change your microwave popcorn bags regularly. Old popcorn bags can cause odors to linger, so make sure you replace them when necessary.

By following these simple tips, you can keep the smell of old popcorn from hanging around your kitchen. And don't forget to sign up for the Kernel Kravings newsletter for more popcorn tips and recipes!
