Popcorn

Popcorn

Popcorn has been a popular snack food, and famous for its presence in movie theaters throughout most of the twentieth century.

Because of the large amount of moisture inside a kernel of popcorn, when heated the pressure inside bursts the hull, turning the kernel inside out.

HEALING TIP: The healthiest way to enjoy popcorn is by popping in a hot air popper. Because most microwave popcorns contain partially hydrogenated oils (trans fats) and produce harmful compounds from the heating of the bag, it is important to choose organic popcorn and air-pop it yourself. Top with organic grated parmesan cheese, cayenne pepper or melted organic butter.
