Popcorn is a type of corn kernel that expands and puffs up when heated. In its natural state, it's a small, hard, yellowish or white kernel. When popped, it transforms into a light, airy, and crunchy snack. The flavor of popcorn is mildly sweet and nutty, making it a versatile base for both sweet and savory seasonings. Whether you're looking for a healthy snack or a delicious treat for movie night, air-popped popcorn offers a low-calorie, high-fiber option.

Store unpopped popcorn kernels in an airtight container in a cool, dark, and dry place. This helps maintain their moisture content for optimal popping. Properly stored popcorn can last for several months to even a year or more. Avoid storing near strong-smelling foods, as the kernels can absorb odors. Popped popcorn is best enjoyed immediately, but it can be stored in an airtight container for a day or two; however, it will lose some of its crispness.
