January 19th, 2022 is National Popcorn Day. If you ask people, “why is National Popcorn Day an annual holiday?”, they may say it is because of the Super Bowl and one of the most eaten football fan snacks is popcorn. 2003 was the year where National Popcorn Day became a national holiday and since then it had a big effect on people.
Students of Palisades High School use this national holiday as a way to get their favorite kind of popcorn. Student Jacob Bucci said, “I like movie popcorn because it is the best popcorn and when you get a movie, you are most likely going to get popcorn. I like how it is buttery and has the perfect amount and it tastes better than the store-bought popcorn.” This student is talking about how the best type of popcorn is the movie popcorn and the best place to get it is at the movie theaters. He believes that the movies make it with the right amount of butter with the popcorn than the store-bought ones.
Another student from Palisades High School, Evan Buckby, said, “Popcorn is pretty good. It is the only food that you can actually eat without getting fat. You can actually survive off of popcorn for a little while. Popcorn is one of my favorite things to eat in the entire world. I love it!” This student states that popcorn is good and it is one of the foods that will not get you fat.
Student Brooklyn Lucas said, “I like popcorn because it's good. I like caramel corn the best. I only eat it once a year and it tastes very good.” This student says that her favorite popcorn is caramel and eats it rarely.
Another student, Ronald Barger stated, “My favorite type of popcorn is zebra-striped popcorn and it is my favorite because it has chocolate on it. I do not eat it very often but it is still my favorite.”
Olivia Knecht claims, ”I like popcorn. On a scale from 1-10 it is about a 9. My favorite is original or kettle corn popcorn. I eat it often if I have it available and I like it because it is not as sweet as the others. It is sweet and salty.”
Happy National Popcorn Day!! This is the best time to get your popcorn because it is on sale and it is a good snack to stock up for the Super Bowl.
