whoooooooa you are a corn-popping expert! i bow down to your corn-popping greateness! fo shizzle!

how do you get popping corn? just… buy bags of it? what makes it different from other corn? does it have to be specially treated? if i grew a corn stalk could i get popping corn from the ears?

i thought that the ingredients for kettle corn were just sugar and salt and butter? and i thought it was plain normal white sugar. but i have no idea.
