Who invented the Chinese popcorn machine?
China's old cannon hand-cranked popcorn machine was invented by Britain in the late19th century. So it is also called English popcorn machine. After the electrification era in the 20th century, it did not prevail in the west, and then it began to prevail in China, especially in the 1960s and 1980s.

There was a black popcorn machine like a cannon on the fire, and the master shook it while pulling the bellows. With a loud bang, a cloud of white smoke rose, and the hot popcorn filled his pockets, and the attractive aroma made his mouth water-this is a beautiful and interesting memory of many China's post-80 s childhood.

During World War II, there was a shortage of sugar raw materials in the United States, and candy, drinks and other products were in short supply. At this time, popcorn became the most closely related and popular snack with cinemas.

Cinema culture was gradually introduced to other countries, and popcorn became popular all over the world because of "bundled input".

Now, popcorn has also become the "best partner" for watching movies.

Under the three conditions of scene+special crowd+creation of by-products used together, popcorn in cinemas can naturally be sold at high prices, and some people are willing to buy it.
