Microwave about 3 minutes, watch carefully, allow it to boil, but you may have to start/stop it to keep it from boiling over. Each microwave seems to have a different power. carefully remove from microwave, stir in remaining ingredients, the soda will make it foam up. Pour this mixture over the popcorn and nuts. Stir well.
