Yes. Already popped, it will quickly go stale while sitting out. Refrigeration will slow the process. Popcorn pops because of the steam produced by the moisture inside the kernel. In the refrigerator, the kernels dry out slower.

Yes. According to an experiment myself and few friends had done together, temperature does effect the number of popcorn kernels that pop. In the experiment, we found that the colder temperature the popcorn is stored in, the less kernels pop.

Clearly it does. If popcorn is stored at a low temperature (1-5c) then the corn will not pop as well therefore this is why microwaveable popcorn packets recommend to store it at room temperature (25c)

yes, if you store it in a cold temp, the water in the cell dries up and breaks. If you store it in a hot climate it will stale and dry out

i think yes because popcorn can only be popped very well in heat so the water in the kernel can make the kernel go inside out.

Yes b/c the corn kernels have water in the middle of them and if it's stored in a hot climate, they won't pop.

How does cold temperatures effect popcorn?

Yes it does. If you put 3 bags of popcorn in a fridge, a freezer, and at room temperature and then cook them, the popcorn stored in the fridge has the most popcorn popped. The freezer has the least.
