History: ACT II history begins with its predecessor-ACT I, an early microwave popcorn that had to be stored in the refrigerator. In 1984 ACT II, a shelf-stable microwave popcorn, hit the stage. It was the first mass-marketed microwave popcorn. ACT II has brought Americans many firsts since then, including the first flavored microwave popcorn, the first fat-free microwave popcorn, and the first kettle-corn-variety microwave popcorn.

Other flavors include Act II Butter Microwave Popcorn, Act II Butter Lovers Microwave Popcorn, Act II Kettle Corn Microwave Popcorn, and Act II Popcorn Bulk 50 Lb Sack.
