National Popcorn Day!



(Via: Yum Sugar)

Not only is today Martin Luther King Jr. Day but it is also NATIONAL POPCORN DAY. So while you are listening to a compilation of Dr. King’s speeches, you can eat a bucket of popcorn! What an awesome time! I think a good popcorn flavor to encompass both occasions would be sweet caramel popcorn because popcorn is a beloved snack and Martin Luther King Jr. was a kindhearted and respected advocate of peace and civil rights.

Popcorn is a great gift, a party favor, a yummy snack, and can even be made into a necklace! You can go the easy route and pop some microwave popcorn or can enjoy some homemade popcorn. I plan on trying out any recipes that have the word "popcorn" in it like popcorn chicken, popcorn balls, popcorn shrimp, chocolate caramel popcorn etc.

How are you going to celebrate National Popcorn Day?
