Why Popcorn Pops.

"What makes popcorn pop" asks
the inquisitive youngster. BY the
evasive replies he receives it is evil
dent that the real reason is not gen.
orally known. The different kinds
of corn contain oil in varying pro-
portions. In popcorn there is a
considerable amount. This expands
when heated, becomes explosive and
causes the kernels to pop open. In
common corn the percentage OF oil
is small, and for this reason it only
cracks, without exploding, when
heated, says Good Housekeeping.
Popcorn is inexpensive and nutri-
tious as well if not used to overin-
diligence.
