Welcome to PopCornPlanet. My aim will be to bring you all cool things to do with popcorn. Want to decorate your house in popcorn wallpaper, want to find popcorn makers or simply want to eat some popcorn? Then follow my blog's and I will share with you what I have found.

Firstly let us introduce Popcorn.

What is popcorn?
Popcorn is basically corn, that has been heated up causing it to..well... pop. Basically the outside of the corn is hard, but the inner section is starchy and dense. When heated the pressure inside the kernel until it explodes.

When was it invented?
Popcorn was invented thousands of years ago in North America by native Americans. It then became popular due to it's low cost and in the war became a good alternative to candy and sweets which had been rationed.

How is it served?
Popcorn can be served with either sugar or salt, making it either a sweet or savoury snack. It also can come in a number of other flavours including toffee.
