Did you know?   Popcorn has been enjoyed for thousands of years, with the oldest evidence of popcorn dating back over 5,000 years to ancient Peru!     Archaeologists have discovered popcorn kernels that are believed to be from around 3,000 BCE in Peru. These ancient kernels were remarkably well-preserved, and evidence suggests that they were popped using hot sand or rocks.

Popcorn became popular in North America in the 19th century and has since become a staple snack at movie theaters and events. We hope today’s fun fact has added a little extra crunch to your day!
