Abstract: A microwave popcorn bag for containing and heating popcorn kernels in a microwave oven. The bag is constructed of a laminated fibrous material and comprises a base panel, top panel, side panels, and interior space. The side panels have gussets with fold areas and fold lines that are adjacent to the base panel and that enable the bag to expand. An oil-resistant microwave susceptor film is laminated with the fibrous material and extends laterally across the base panel and the fold lines into the fold areas. Microwave interactive material is confined to the base panel. As the popcorn is heated, the bag expands and the microwave susceptor film forms a tray structure that collects oil and resists it penetrating through the fibrous material.
