How Popcorn Made It to Movie Theaters
Popcorn Lovers
Popcorn has been around for thousands of years, and it's originally from the Americas. It was used as a snack back in 4,000BC, and it was found in New Mexico USA. In the 16th century, popcorn was used for religious ceremonies by the Aztec Indians. And as early as the 19th century, popcorn became a common breakfast food. After the moldboard plow became popular, growing large amounts of popcorn was easy; there was a lot of it and it was cheap. Today, popcorn would be considered a poor gift to give; however, it was loved back then and still is today.

My quest to find many publications with prestige to submit to has worked out even better than I thought. I was searching for more publications with more prestige in order to bolster my resume. I truly thought I'd try this for a year and not get published anywhere... maybe if I was lucky... in one of them. And I was OK with that... I was just going to try again the following year, and the year after that, and so on.
