Popcorn Trivia

Popcorn is the world's Number #1 selling snack food.

Americans consume 18 billion quarts of popcorn per year.

That number has increased 30% in the last three years. We like to think that our Kettle Korn is part of the reason.

99 out of every 100 people eat popcorn.

U. S. consumption is 73 quarts per person.

1 out of every 10 people is "Popcorn Fanatics."

Popcorn is no fad. It is over 5,600 years old.

When Christopher Columbus first arrived in the West Indies, the natives tried to sell popcorn to his crew.

Colonial housewives often served popcorn with sugar and cream for breakfast. It was the first "puffed" breakfast cereal eaten by Europeans.
