Hey all,

Been wanting to reduce the amount of waste I generate, and one small way I was thinking of doing so was perhaps by reheating the unpopped popcorn kernels that appear in the bottom of my bowl after making a batch with my air popper.

Would this be safe to do, or is it recommended against? I’d love to reuse them if possible and ensure I have no unneeded waste there, but I also want to make sure I’m not making myself sick by eating something I shouldn’t be.

Thanks in advance!

    Rolled Oats, Cut Oats, and Instant Oats are all steam treated and dried (I think…) which should remove any chance of contamination, but if they stay unsealed for a long time or are in contact with moisture or oils then it would carry some risks.
