But one day her school goes on a healthy eating campaign and her dads decide to follow suit, banning all snack foods from their house, INCLUDING POPCORN. Unfair.

One kernel refuses to pop, and soon it's sprouted a face, arms, and legs! He introduces himself as Popcorn Bob, and he is NOT in a good mood. (Ever, really.)

This book was released on 2008-04-17 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This entertaining book seeks to unravel an array of pricing puzzles from the one captured in the book’s title to why so many prices end with "9" (as in $2.99 or $179). Along the way, the author explains how the 9/11 terrorists have, through the effects of their heinous acts on the relative prices of various modes of travel, killed more Americans since 9/11 than they killed that fateful day. He also explains how well-meaning efforts to spur the use of alternative, supposedly environmentally friendly fuels have starved millions of people around the world and given rise to the deforestation of rainforests in Malaysia and Indonesia.

Download or read book Pop Corn for the Home written by Carleton Roy Ball and published by . This book was released on 1913 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The production of pop corn for home use is to be encouraged. It gives the children a direct interest in farm life and affords pleasant recreation for the long winter evenings. A plat of 2 rods square will be large enough to produce a good supply for one family. If more is grown than is wanted for home use the surplus usually can be disposed of at a profit. Any one of the common varieties will give satisfactory results if properly handled. It is important to have the pop corn ripen fully on the stalk before harvesting and for this reason it should be planted early in northern sections, so it will have a long season in which to grow and mature. When the stalks are dead the ears may be husked and should then be stored in a cool, well-ventilated place and protected against mice and squirrels." -- p.2

Book excerpt: I remember when W was president and many people were worried about his intellectual ability. This was much later than Reagan and worries about his Alzheimers. I only heard about this because I was too young to really remember much about Reagan while he was in office. But, this is all overshadowed these days with the fragments and short bursts of Trump and the ramblings of Biden. The time is right to present the poetry of Biden. All of these poems are taken straight from the speeches of Biden through out the years. No wording was changed. Only line breaks were added to turn his words into free verse poetry.

Download or read book Popped Culture written by Andrew F. Smith and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2021-11-24 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history, legends, and cookery of America's favorite snack food Whether in movie theaters or sports arenas, at fairs or theme parks, around campfires or family hearths, Americans consume more popcorn by volume than any other snack. To the world, popcorn seems as American as baseball and apple pie. Within American food lore, popcorn holds a special place, for it was purportedly shared by Native Americans at the first Thanksgiving. In Popped Culture, Andrew F. Smith tests such legends against archaeological, agricultural, culinary, and social findings. While debunking many myths, he discovers a flavorful story of the curious kernel's introduction and ever-increasing consumption in North America. Unlike other culinary fads of the nineteenth century, popcorn has never lost favor with the American public. Smith gauges the reasons for its unflagging popularity: the invention of "wire over the fire" poppers, commercial promotion by shrewd producers, the fascination of children with the kernel's magical "pop," and affordability. To explain popcorn's twentieth-century success, he examines its fortuitous association with new technology—radio, movies, television, microwaves—and recounts the brand-name triumphs of American manufacturers and packagers. His familiarity with the history of the snack allows him to form expectations about popcorn's future in the United States and abroad. Smith concludes his account with more than 160 surprising historical recipes for popcorn cookery, including the intriguing use of the snack in custard, hash, ice cream, omelets, and soup.
