The Popcorn Machine Helmet Will Change Movie-Going Forever

April 8, 2016 by Chris Durso

The problem with eating popcorn at the movies, is that it leaves no hands free for other snacking, or to point at the movie screen and yell.

Engineer, Simone Giertz, is here to change all of that, with the Popcorn Machine Helmet. Teaming up with Adam Savage, formerly of Mythbusters, the popcorn-feeder starts to come together after a brainstorm via Skype.

When it’s complete, we have a handy contraption that will help feed the user popcorn — while simultaneously leaving your pointing hand free, and pissing off anyone sitting behind you.

Stanley Cup Popcorn Maker

September 25, 2014 by Chris Durso

Of all the things hockey players do with the Stanley Cup — such as drinking beer from it, using it to bathe a small child, or making jell-o — someone’s had to have eaten some popcorn out of it.

Either way, anyone can now act like a champion, with The Stanley Cup Popcorn Maker. Hockey’s holy grail will make a batch of popcorn in the bottom half, while the top cup part will act as a serving bowl.

Get the full experience by engraving the names of all of your guests on the side, and then throwing it in the pool.*

A Volkswagen Covered in Popcorn

August 11, 2014 by Chris Durso

Ditch the fancy paint job and consider covering your ride with fluffy popcorn. That’s what a few art students from The Braunschweig University of Art were recently thinking, when they covered a Volkswagen with popcorn.

Whether the car has completely been consumed by birds yet, we’re not sure, but each kernel was adhered to the VW with hot glue gun. It just needs a buttering every few months.

Popcorn’s Long History and The Science Behind Why It Pops

March 3, 2014 by Chris Durso

The next time that you’re at the movies…Try to take a short break from shoveling popcorn into your pie-hole, to appreciate the history and science behind the snack.

For instance… Did you know that popcorn kernels can be traced back to the ancient Aztecs? And, that the uncooked popcorn kernel is a sort of pressure cooker — helping to cook its own innards until the starches explode and solidify.

The short video Popcorn’s Beautiful, Explosive Journey lays it all out, and might have you craving some popcorn shortly after. Even if you’re going to torture your entire office with the stench of microwave popcorn — you can at least share some cool popcorn trivia too. It’s no wonder you never get invited to lunch.
