Popcorn and the Movies: A Match Made in Heaven
Popcorn and movies go hand in hand, and this tradition dates back to the early 20th century. Popcorn is easy to make, affordable, and doesn¡¯t need fancy equipment¡ªmaking it the perfect snack for cinema-goers. It¡¯s also a pretty healthy option. As a whole grain, popcorn is packed with fiber, which is great for digestion and helps you feel full longer.
During the Great Depression, popcorn sales helped theaters survive tough economic times. People would spend money on cheap treats like popcorn when they went to the movies. Seeing the trend, theaters jumped on the popcorn train, and by the 1940s, most cinemas were selling popcorn themselves.
From Classic Buttered to Crazy Flavors
While classic buttered popcorn is still a fan favourite, we now have loads of other options, from caramel chocolate to cheesy varieties. Whether you¡¯re all about new flavours or prefer sticking to the classic, one thing is clear: popcorn isn¡¯t going anywhere anytime soon!
Google Doodle Popcorn Celebration
Today¡¯s Google Doodle honors popcorn¡¯s timeless appeal. Did you know that in 2020, Thailand made the world¡¯s largest popcorn machine, earning a spot in the record books? That¡¯s a whole lot of popcorn! The Google Doodle also highlights popcorn's long history, dating back to the time when Mesoamerican cultures used maize for snacks and even decorations.
Popcorn didn¡¯t start as just a movie snack. It was actually eaten as breakfast with milk in the U.S. during the 1800s. In the 1890s, the invention of the popcorn maker helped spread the joy of popcorn to more people, making it the crunchy treat we all love today.

What is a Google Doodle?
For those wondering, a Google Doodle is a fun, creative change to the Google logo. These Doodles celebrate special occasions, holidays, and even famous people. The tradition started in 1998 when Google¡¯s founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, added a stick figure to the logo to let users know they were at the Burning Man festival.
