Popcorn - America’s Most Popular Snack

Originating from indigenous cultures in the Americas, popcorn has been enjoyed for centuries. However, its massive popularity in the United States boomed in the early 1900s, especially with the rise of cinema. Affordable, fun, and easy to make, popcorn became the go-to snack for watching films, and its charm still captivates snack lovers today.
