National Popcorn Day!

17 January

National Popcorn Day is celebrated annually on January 19.

Fun Facts About Popcorn:

  1. Ancient Origins: Popcorn has been around for thousands of years. The oldest popcorn discovered dates back over 5,000 years and was found in caves in New Mexico.
  2. Pop Science: Popcorn kernels pop because of water trapped inside the kernel. When heated, the water turns to steam, creating pressure until the kernel bursts.
  3. Movie Theater Connection: Popcorn became a popular movie theater snack during the Great Depression because it was affordable and accessible. Today, it’s nearly synonymous with the cinema experience.
  4. Popcorn Capital: Indiana is often referred to as the “Popcorn Capital of the World” because it produces more popcorn than any other state in the U.S.
  5. Healthy Snack: Air-popped popcorn is low in calories and high in fiber, making it a great snack option when not loaded with butter and salt.

Whether you’re a fan of traditional buttered popcorn or adventurous gourmet flavors, National Popcorn Day is the perfect excuse to indulge!
