Popcorn Machine (Sample writing for interview)

With the advent of microwavable popcorn came the demise of the home popcorn machine. Why would you keep yet another needless mini machine in your kitchen when you can simply toss a bag in the nuke and forget it?

Ah, but you have forgotten the whole joy that was once the family popcorn night. Nowadays, family popcorn isn’t about the popping of the corn as much as it’s about watching a Netflix with the family, sharing the corn. But, once, things were different.

Popcorn was once a luxury only found at the fair or at the movies. But, with the advent of home popcorn machines, a whole new world was opened. These were the glory days of popcorn. It wasn’t about the corn. It wasn’t about the flavoring. It was about the POP. The thrill of watching the corn actually pop is simply unmatchable by the modern bagged corn.

But, it’s not too late for you to repent your sins against the popcorn machine. For as little as $18, you can bring the joy of popcorn night back into your home. So what are you waiting for? Go buy a popcorn machine and watch the smiles on your family’s faces.
