Popcorn
(Corn, Popping) Popcorn is usually considered a snack food, but when air-popped, it is quite a healthful food, unlike oil-popped and candy coated popcorn, and potato chips. We usually air-pop our popcorn in our microwave oven in a special container we purchased specifically for this purpose, or in a hot air popping machine. While the so-called gourmet popcorn may produce slightly larger volumes of popped corn, we have found that the price difference is unjustified, and usually purchase store, or either organic or non-organic off-brand popping corn seed. Unfortunately, we have found some very poor quality organic popcorn, and, as a result, usually purchase a store brand at a local supermarket at about $0.50/lb. For popcorn recipes, go to our Snacks sub-section. See the nutritional chart below.

The above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31): 'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live! (d-33)
