Best Answer

Popcorn was invented in North America by the Native Americans. When Pilgrims came over on the Mayflower the Indians taught them how to make popcorn, which was by putting maize (corn) in a pot or pan and putting it over a fire. The corn would then pop, creating the delicious snack that we love today.

Popcorn was first discovered thousands of years ago by Native Americans in North America. It is one of the oldest forms of corn.

Evidence of popcorn from 3600 B.C. was found in New Mexico.

The English who came to America in the 16th and 17th centuries learned about popcorn from the Native Americans.
