@nprofile1q... Which reminds me of when I was a small tike and wanting to help my mother pop popcorn on the stove top. I watched intently as she placed a pot on the burner, added some oil and about 3 kernels. After turning up the heat she explained that she would know when the oil was hot enough when those three kernels popped. I asked if I could help with the next step; pouring in a cup of kernels to really get the show going.
She handed me the cup and I held that handle with both hands while peering into the bottom of the pot. Waiting. Waiting in anticipation.
POP! went the first kernel and I jerked that cup of corn kernels so hard it launched them into the air and down to the floor!
Did you know that popcorn kernels bounce? And more than one time?
Did you know that popcorn kernels roll out of sight under appliances?
My mother was finding kernels for years.
