Popcorn is its own variety of corn. Normal corn or sweet corn cannot produce the same popped fluff as popcorn.
Today's popcorn is genetically closer to the maize that all today's variety of corns extend from
Popcorn pops because when u heat it up water inside the kernals evaporates and expands causing the kernal to explode. Old popcorn has less moisture inside of it causing less kernals to pop.
Popcorn is made out of corn kernals.
Heat! Yes yess heat!

Yes. I did the experiment for a science project for school and I found out that different brands of popcorn do leave different amounts of unpopped kernals.
We could smell the fresh scent of popcorn kernals.
The stuff you pop are the corn kernals. Easy!
It depends on the popcorn, and for how long you put it in the microwave.

Most likely yes. But why would you freeze popcorn in the first place? You may find that when frozen popcorn is put in a popcorn machine, the outside of the kernals will "cook" much quicker than the insides will heat up. This means that they kernals may end up burnt on the outside before the oil inside the kernal has reached a heat that will make it pop. This may result in burnt popcorn.
I have had moldy tasing popcorn a few times now, it is gross. I do not know for sure what causes it, but here is my theory: I believe popcorn kernals have some moisture inside which is neccesary in getting them to pop. So I am thinking that perhaps if popcorn gets old, mold can grow inside the kernal from the moisture, making it taste moldy when it is popped. This is the only thing that makes sense to me, and it seems like whenever I have tasted it my kernals were kind of on the old side.
