Not a snob, but the stench of microwave popcorn shuts me down. Have to leave room. Prob due to when I worked at VA, microwave popcorn just came out and every microwave was impregnated with the stench o' corn.
Popped old school, I'm good.

Had a fella that would cook his corn tortillas in the lunch room microwave, yeah, that wasn't good. My wife burns hers on purpose so I don't want any of hers ,swear

First: https://foodbabe.com/microwave-popcorn/
Second: Compare with popcorn made in a pot w/ oil and real melted butter.

You can also make "cheese chips" in the microwave. Just sprinkle your favorite shredded cheese on a paper plate and nuke it. Watch it to make sure it doesn't burn. They're great with chili!

I grew up eating burritos nuked in the microwave at 7-11.

Next you'll be taking away my chess-whiz and my little packets of artificial sour cream flavoring, you younger folk need to take a walk on the wild side sometime.kek

I'd love to say I was young, but I'd be lying ; )
That said, I made cheesesteaks over the weekend and wife nixed me getting the Whiz for them. Opted for Boar's Head provolone.
I've eaten 3 year old twinkies. I've eaten stuff off the streets from DC to Kabul. Try eating alpaca at 14,000 feet. Or goat ass when it's 150 degrees outside. I've shit through the eye of the needle so many times I've lost count. That's what Cipro is for.
Seriously though...microwaved popcorn has some really nasty chemicals in it.
