I love popcorn . Look at that! Quite fascinating. I really wonder who first came up with the idea. Just the look of it is enticing. Growing up my older sister would often prepare popcorn. I’d join in. We’d use a a deep pot, heat the oil, hurry to drop the kernels in and cover the pot. I alway loved the popping sound. We would dance to the rhythm of the pops. When mostly done, we’d carefully open the pot to remove the popcorn. There was often that one kernel that decided to wait until the pot was opened for it to pop and jump out. 😄
We'd then add salt but sometimes we didn't mix it well enough. We had to deal with some very salty popcorn at the bottom of the container. 😂🤣
