The Green Cafe: Popcorn: Beyond the Microwave”

October 6, 2016

Presented by Ann Feke of the Gendron Lab.

Ann showed New Englanders what real mid-west popcorn is all about.  Beyond our classic movie theater popcorn she brought us a variety of maize kernels each with its own unique flavor, color, shape, and texture.  Popcorn was shared all around as we watched it exploded in slow motion, as well as learning it historical significance to American culture. For more information on the topic please watch the full length video of the presentation on our Youtube channel “The Green Café at Yale” at https://youtu.be/tkstVRvqcGs
