2.4 Various types of heating element ¬Analysis of alternatives
Popcorn is a favourite American snack. The salty favorite is what
people crave. Popcorn in sold already popped in many places. You can
find it at movie theatres, road side stands and several celebrations.
Nowadays, you can buy pop corn in large variety of flavours like butter,
cheese and caramel to name a few. Pop corn is an in expensive treat
that is fun to share with a group of people
You can make pop corn yourself in many different ways:
A pan with lid on it
Microwave pop corn
Hot air pop corn machine
Electrical operated pop corn machine
2.4.1 A pan with lid it
A pan with a lid on it can serve to make a nice batch of pop corn. by
just putting a couple tables spoons of oil in the pan and a quarter cup
of pop corn seed in the pan with the oil you can make your own batch of
pop corn. Make sure you keep the lid on the pop corn while it is popping
or you could have mess or get hurt.
2.4.2 Microwave Popcorn
Microwave popcorn is a popular way to make popcorn. You can buy it in
pre mixed packages. Microwave popcorn can be brought in many flavours
and it is very easy to make just pop the package in your microware and
follows the instruction on the package in just a minute or two, then,
you can have some popcorn.
 
2.4.3 An open fire Popcorn.
If you want to pop some popcorn while you are out camping over an open
fire, you can buy the kind of popcorn that comes in a pan already to
pop. This popcorn has an aluminum foil cover and it is extremely fun to
pop. As the popcorn pops, it makes the aluminum foil rise so it is very
entertainting. It is tasty as well as fun.
If you want to popcorn
over an open fire and you do not have a pre made pan of popcorn, you
can take a large flat rock and put it in the centre of your fire, put
some popcorn on the rock and when the rock gets hot then the popcorn
will pop. There is a lot wasted in making popcorn with this method
because you can only eat the popcorn that flies out of the fire. It can
be dangerous as well because you never can tell where the popcorn will
fly as it shouts out of the fire.
I do not recommend this method of making popcorn. But i have heard it is fun.
