Who Invented Popcorn?

The Aztecs, for example, who lived in the region where the current territory of Mexico is located, used popcorn in rituals to honor the gods. The food only expanded around the world around 1890 and became popular in the United States when techniques that facilitated the planting of corn were developed.
