burned popcorn smell...

[maplesky7]

in my microwave for days now... i've scrubbed it and now I just heated some apple cider vinegar...

what else can i do about the smell?

 

[WriterofWords]

Microwave some REALLY smelly fish!!!

 

[maplesky7]

oh that's cruel.

Try crumbling up newspapers and let them set in there overnight. It works in a freezer that has had rotten meat in it. Stuff it in there, not super tight, but fill up the spaces and see if that helps. I also have read where pure vanilla extract in an open lid type holder will also absorb a lot of bad odors.

You could also try mixing baking soda and water and spraying it down, then leave the box in there overnight. Might work even better than the fish!

 

[maplesky7]

okey dokey... I'll give it a shot.

 

[redhen]

well..i'd start with..Not burning the popcorn...

You insired me to make some popcorn, buty I didn't burn it. Probably not as good as yours.

Imp- can you send me the recipe?

 

[maplesky7]

i didn't... i tried to teach my almost 8 yr. old to do it.

there is a button that says, "popcorn"

and i don't know what she pushed but it just went on and on until there was nothing left but a poof of smoke.
