Not all corn can be used to make popcorn you know.
At least that popcorn doesn't hurt your stomach.
Not a popcorn lover myself. Hate it when someone burns the stuff at my workplace. Nowhere to run to get away from the stench
Popcorn
The corn needs to be right for that to happen, we do that all the time here(I don't mean making popcorn, microwaving a whole corn cob), although we only microwave for about 2 minutes and 30 seconds.Quote:

What did you do with those "Native Americans". They most probably knew other ways to prepare corn into a tasty meal.
Now the world is stuck with this "american way of.."
what are you yammering about? there's plenty of tasy uses for corn... chowder... cornbread... tortillas... grits... wait... nope, that's pretty much it ...

The two of the biggest uses for corn, that I can think of are Corn Sugar - Eventually turned to HFCS
and Ethanol.
Indians were so ahead of the curve, they been microwaving popcorn for centuries while watching hardcore live pRon:afrog:Quote:

Hi moti,
Instead of putting whole corns in microwave to get pop corns why don't you try packet pop corns. They are easy to make and delicious in taste.
yes i agree with it , packet pop corns are very easy to make and it takes 2 minutes, better than putting a whole corn in the microwave.

:confused: Is that like air guitar, i.e., you hang around waiting for something that doesn't exist to be popped so you can pretend to eat it?Quote:

Actually "corn" is a word very like "grain" in meaning though in some places we consider it to mean a grain of maize as opposed to wheat, barley, rye, etc.
So you probably mean an "ear of corn" and not "a whole corn."
And yes, wheat comes in ears as well.
Popping corn normally refers to varieties of maize that are good for popping. And yes, you can buy "seed corn" to grow your own if you can't get the stuff from the store to sprout reliably.
Now you're just being corny. I'd give you an ear full, but that when it comes to corn, that would be considered a stalk reply.Quote:
