I cannot imagine popcorn will kill a cat if eats a few, but like with any food there is a small risk of choking, or if fed too often it could have detrimental effects on the cat's health. Too much sugar or salt can harm a cat, so it is not ideal to feed a cat popcorn, not even as a treat.

Popcorn is a type of corn. Most popping corn is specifically grown for that purpose using strains which exhibit good popping characteristics.

How old should a child be to eat popcorn?
It honestly depends on the child. Does the child have the majority of their teeth in the back of their mouth? If they don't, they aren't ready because they can't chew the popcorn. By age 2 or so, the average child has enough teeth to do the job. The next question is how does the child approach food? If the answer is tentative/cautious then it will probably be alright to introduce the food. If the child is a "fast gulper" or a "mouth stuffer" then the introduction of popcorn or like foods will require close supervision. Be calm and be ready. Most of the time the child will handle the situation. If they can't, that is where the parent comes in.

The answer to this question varies on the oil one uses. The popcorn lists the calories in uncooked measurements. Usually 1/4 cup uncooked is one serving.
