Is there any way to get popcorn you pop at home to taste like

Sure. Just cook it in a thick pot on the stove.

Get a dutch oven or other thick heavy pot with a lid. Put a little oil in the bottom. Heat it up until the oil is just about smoking. Dump the corn it, slap the lid on.

Flavacol and coconut oil.

I used to work at a movie theater and the majority of the popcorn that was made was put into giant plastic bags and kept in a closet for ~3 days. If a customer was lucky enough to be there when a new batch was popping they could ask for fresh popcorn. Provided they knew they can and should ask for it.

we have homemade popcorn quite a lot when we watch movies on the weekends.

in a regular saucepan I put enough olive oil to cover the bottom of the pan. set it to the highest heat. I have an electric hob that goes from 1 to 6. I put it on 6. the corn kernels we've had before have come from tesco own brand (cheap,basic) and from M&S (kinda fancy) but results are always the same.

before the oil gets hot put in enough kernels to cover the Base of the pan and then pour in about two or three tablespoons of sugar. brown sugar or caster sugar seems to work better than granulated. put a lid on the pot and wait for the kernels to start popping.

keep and eye on it and take out any popped corn as necessary and shake the pan occasionally to keep the smaller kernels shuffled to the bottom.

even with cheap kernels the end result tastes like cinema Porcorum to me. add more or less sugar depending on your personal preference.

this tbqh

Get a whirley popper, flavacol and orange dyed coconut oil made for popcorn. 3 tablespoons of the oil, 1 teaspoon flavacol, 1/2 cup kernels. Pop and stir. Pour into bowl. It's identical and what most theaters use to make theirs except their poppers stir for them

I also recommend flavacol. That's the reason movie popcorn tastes the way it does. Popcorn is an American thing, so do it the American way and don't be prissy about it!
