Not a lot of people know this, but last Thursday was National Popcorn Day. Did you know that? We only found out last Wednesday. It’s a bit weird as National Popcorn Month is apparently in October. Are they connected? And when did it start? Why did it start? Is there any documentation that confirms it as being ‘officially’ a national day? 

Enough with the trivial questions. Being popcorn fans, we thought we should celebrate it a little. We are quite new to the area so thought it would be nice to introduce ourselves to our work neighbours with a little popcorn gift. ‘Happy National Popcorn Day!’ we shouted to our new friends. ‘I didn’t know it was National Popcorn Day’ people mumbled back, or once, ‘Do I have to fill in a market research form if I take it from you?’. 

Anyway, it’s a big deal in America. #HappyNationalPopcornDay was actually trending on Twitter at one point, which means that EVERYONE was talking about it (pretty much).

Lets hope National Popcorn Day becomes big in the UK one day. We had a lot of fun and lets face it, popcorn is lush, especially this new gourmet range from our friends at Joe and Seph’s. (Thanks for contributing guys).  Join us again next year and who knows, we might get it trending in the UK too.
