NU12 - by Jaime Mendejar - getting hot pop corn idea

Repacked Popcorn

I was at the movies last night to watch the Hunger Games and I saw the typical line for the tickets and the line for the snacks, particularly for popcorn.  Gave me an idea, since whenever we buy popcorn, we rarely consume the whole pack even if we just get the smallest one.  I believe 1 factor would be the repetitive taste and chewing of the same flavored popcorn which may not be hot anymore as the movie goes along.  So I thought, why can't there be a repacked version?  You would still cook it the same way, but instead of putting it into small to large tumblers of popcorn, place it in a recycled plastic similar to what you buy with a balut vendor (except its chicharon).  You may sell it cheaper but still gaining profit, even more than what 1 tumbler can earn because you pack it into smaller parts, people won't notice that what they are getting is less than what they could when getting a tumbler.  But it will 'satisfy' the usual craving without the usual waste.  3.5
