You're desperate for popcorn, but you've only got a pair of Arctic Spyder III lasers to play with; can you still enjoy a movie theater style treat? According to WorldScott, the answer is yes, as long as you also have plenty of time on your hands or very little appetite. His video shows that with some patience – we're talking kernel by kernel here – you can create popcorn using just the strength of the two high-powered lasers.

It takes a couple of minutes, and involves balancing the kernel on a swivelling platter and keeping a steady hand, but it's undoubtedly another important step in combining cooking and lasers. At $299.95 a piece, however, lasers probably aren't the cheapest way to make a movie time snack.
