Get Poppin'
The Volume Of Popcorn
Popcorn is one of my favorite snacks. It is also one of the healthiest snacks. In my experiment, I will be measuring the volume after each popped batch. The brands I will be popping are Orville Recenbacker's, Pop Secrete, Act II, store brand ( like Wal-Mart or Jewel) and Jolly Time. First, I will count out 100 kernels from each brand. Then I would pop them and count the kernels popped. I would them measure the kernels in a graduated pitcher. While I am experimenting, I will also be gathering data and information. My project would be just about finished, so I would transfer the data to the poster board and present.
