Now-You-Know:Popcorn was invented by Aztec indians

Popcorn was first seen with the Aztecs indians.Popcorn was important to the Aztecs as food, as decoration for ceremonial headdresses and necklaces, and as ornaments on statues of their gods.

Around 1612, French explorers around the Great Lakes met Iroquois who usedheated sand in a pottery vessel to make popcorn. There is an unproven theory that an Indian named Quadequina brought a deerskin bag of popped corn for the first
Thanksgiving feast on October 15, 1621. In 1948 and 1950, anthropologist Herbert Dick and botanist Earle Smith discovered ears of popcorn in the Bat Cave of west central New Mexico. The ears measured from smaller than a penny to about two inches. They were determined to be
about 5,600 years old.

During the Colonial era ,Colonial housewives served popcorn with sugar and cream for breakfast. Some colonists used a cylinder of thin sheet- iron that revolved on an axle in front of the fireplace to make popped corn.
