Put the sugar after the popcorn. Because sugar melts so easily, if you put it in the pot before you make popcorn, the melted sugar will stick the kernels together, resulting in a mushy pot. Popcorn is generally high in dietary fiber, folate, zinc, copper, manganese, iron, riboflavin, and thiamin. Popcorn is a puffed food made with corn, ghee, and sugar put together in a popcorn popping machine for a sweeter flavor. Take the right amount of corn into the popcorn pot, and seal the top, and then put the popcorn pot on the stove and keep turning to make it evenly heated, then you can pop popcorn. Thousands of years ago, popcorn was first discovered in the Inca Empire, is one of the world's oldest snacks.
