Caramel Corn

4 qts. popped corn                          1 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. light corn syrup                      1/2 c. margarine
1 t. baking soda

For this you'll need a popcorn maker and the kerneled corn.  Pop corn into large bowl.  Shake gently and scoop out just the popped corn (try to strain out the kernels - this will make it safer to chew without injury).  Put popped corn in paper sack (from the grocery store).

Bring to a boil the sugar, syrup and butter; stir in soda.  Mixture will foam up.  Pour sauce evening over popcorn in bag.  Microwave on high for 1 and 1/2 minutes, shake well; nuke for another 1 1/2 minutes, shake and spread out on cookie sheet or waxed paper.  Use potholders or towels when handling the hot bag - it's extremely hot!
