Greetings Infomaniacs,

My favorite part about going to the movies is the buttery
delicious popcorn. Although it is expensive, a trip to the
movies for me just isn’t complete without it. Mmmmm….

Since I have now filled your head with thoughts of popcorn,
let me also fill you up with some trivia on the tasty snack!

Enjoy!

                    TODAY’S MYSTERY QUOTE

QUOTE: “Seeing is deceiving. It’s eating that’s believing.”

HINT: (1894-1961), American author, cartoonist and
celebrated wit, known for contributions to The New Yorker
magazine.

                        RANDOM TIDBITS

Popcorn’s scientific name is zea mays everta, and it is the
only type of corn that will pop.

                             ***

The first commercial popcorn machine was invented by Charles
Cretors in Chicago in 1885. The business he founded still
manufactures popcorn machines and other specialty equipment.

                             ***

Each kernel contains a small amount of moisture. As the
kernel is heated, this water turns to steam. Popcorn differs
from other grains in that the kernel’s shell is not water-
permeable, so the steam cannot escape and pressure builds
up until the kernel finally explodes, turning inside out.

???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Nebraska produces more popcorn than any other state in the
country — around 250 million pounds per year. That’s about
a quarter of all the popcorn produced annually in the
United States.

                             ***

On average, a kernel will pop when it reaches a temperature
of 347 degress Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Unpopped
kernels are called “old maids” or “spinsters.”

                             ***

Popped popcorn comes in two basic shapes: snowflake and
mushroom. Movie theaters prefer snowflake because it’s
bigger. Confections such as caramel corn use mushroom
because it won’t crumble.
