Popcorn
Popcorn is one of the world's healthiest and most popular snack foods.
It is loaded with important nutrients and offers a variety of health benefits.
Popcorn is a special type of corn that "pops" when exposed to heat.
At the center of each kernel is a small amount of water, which expands when heated and eventually causes the kernel to explode.
The oldest piece of popcorn was discovered in New Mexico and is said to be over 5,000 years old.
Over the years, it has become increasingly popular. It became especially popular during the Great Depression because it was so cheap.
Today around 1.2 billion pounds (500 million kg) are consumed by Americans every year, making it America's most popular snack food by volume.
