Wow, I had one of those electric jobs in college! No stove needed, just an outlet. You could take it apart and expose the coil, which turned out to be useful in the winter in Wisconsin when the dorm heat failed. The windows had ice on the inside, but I was able to sit at my desk as long as the coil was plugged in underneath me. I dropped out after a year, ended up finishing college in New Mexico. Much better weather. I just wasn't Wisconsin material.

If going to UNM means you are a Lobo, then yes. I went to one basketball game. My pack was mainly English Dept, poets,  and potheads.

Of course it does!  My wife went to grad school there - there was evidently one guy who made popcorn by the 30 gallon garbage bag.

I used to use a wok for popcorn when my kids were little. The heat and oil and unpopped kernels stay at the bottom of the wok, where the heat is, and the popped kernels sit above them and are safe(r) from being scorched after a moment's ill-timed inattention (which happened frequently when my kids were little). :)

 

It sounds odd, but it's actually quite functional.

 

 Yeah, as soon as she said 'wok', I thought "that's perfect".

Just need to find a suitable lid.
