Popcorn
Most of the popcorn consumed throughout the world is grown in the United States. Although worldwide sales of popcorn are steadily increasing, Americans consume more popcorn than the citizens of any other country.
To achieve the utmost in popability, the moisture content of popcorn should be from 13 percent to 14.5 percent; 13.5 percent is considered ideal. A moisture content over or under these percentages greatly reduces popability. M&D Farms has contracts with a few commercial popcorn companies In Indiana, Michigan & Ohio.
