SFC: Families Matter Blog – It’s Finally Here – Popcorn Poetry Contest
KERNEL SEASON’S POPCORN
What was discovered in a bat cave in New Mexico that dates back 5,500 years? What do Americans consume 17 billion quarts each year of? What food is so versatile it can be used in pudding, candy, soup, salad, and as an entrée?
The answer to all these questions is the same: popcorn!
"Now here's your assignment if you choose to accept it..."
