Do you ever imagine how popcorn first came about or was ‘discovered’? Was there a seasonal wildfire sweeping through and it hit an unharvested crop of corn? Waking those sleeping near, they stumble from their sleep to find white covering the ground. Plot twist. It wasn’t snow.

Does anyone have a time machine?
