The brown paper bag called a lunch bag is not strong enough to hold hot oil.
If you do this, you may get burnt and you may even create a fire if it were
to get to hot. You can dump all the butter on the corn after it's popped you
want. But, the bag from a commercial company is designed to handle this and
it's all precisely measured. Even then, those bags do scorch sometimes. Your
plan is not safe in my opinion. Go to Walmart and buy the megabox to save
money of prepackaged bags instead of risking injury to save a little money.

That would be no better than hot air popcorn, which is extremely dry. This
is not what I am trying to accomplish.
With microwave popcorn, the butter, oil, salt, and popcorn are all in the
bag. You then microwave it. This is exactly what I want to do with raw
kernels, butter, oil, and seasoning, as stated in the original query.

This is false sort of. You put the raw without oiled kernels in the paper
bag, tape it closed, pop it, and then add your butter in the bowl if you
desire butter. You are going to have a super mess if you put cooking oil
in a paper bag. The kernels are considered a whole grain so without the
grease is a very healthy snack and is very low calorie too! I think it is
5 cups for like 50 calories of popped corn without looking it up for
exactness.
It is hard to answer your question about how much. I don't know the size
of your bag or microwave or its strength. So, I'd start with a tablespoon
of kernels and adjust from there after the first time.

Just curious if anyone knows this for a fact. I do not want a guess, only
if you know for sure.
You can put raw popcorn kernels, cooking oil, and butter into a paper bag
and tape it closed, or use a microwavable container that has a lid, and
microwave it successfully, rather than buying premeasured microwave
popcorn.
If so, in what proportions?
Thanks.
