Hi. 00:48 And Miss Sophia. Hi. 00:51 And we have Mr. Ben. Hi! 00:54 And we also have another special guest. 00:58 We have Dr. Ryan Hayes. 01:00 Welcome, Dr. Hayes. 01:02 Hi, boys and girls. 01:03 Now, Carter, can you tell me why 01:06 Dr. Hayes is a really special guest? 01:09 Because he's a scientist. 01:12 And what else? 01:13 He's my daddy. 01:14 That's right. 01:16 And, boys and girls, 01:18 today, we're gonna be popping popcorn, 01:22 and we're gonna be talking about popcorn. 01:25 And Dr. Hayes is a chemist, 01:27 so he can tell us 01:28 some really good facts about the nutrition of popcorn. 01:34 It's really good for us, isn't it, Dr. Hayes? 01:35 Oh, it is fantastic for you. 01:38 I'm glad I can be a part of this. 01:39 Oh, yay! 01:40 I love popcorn. Well, you know what? 01:42 You'll have to talk loud 01:43 because I need to turn our popcorn on 01:45 so it'll start popping. 01:47 Oh, you know, I know how to talk loud. 01:48 Oh, good. Yeah. 01:49 Because I've got some popped already, 01:52 but we want to pop some more 01:54 'cause that way each of you are gonna be able to pop it 01:57 and then we're gonna have fun 01:59 putting all kinds of different toppings on our popcorn. 02:02 Sounds exciting. 02:04 That way, you can each make it your own way. 02:06 Won't that be fine? 02:08 Who likes popcorn? 02:09 Me! Oh, me! 02:10 Oh, I love popcorn. Oh, me too. 02:13 And you know what? 02:14 This popcorn is a special Indian corn blend. 02:20 It's a special blend of Indian popcorn. 02:23 Look at all the colors. Isn't it pretty? 02:24 Can you see all the colors? Uh-huh. 02:26 Look at this. 02:27 Look at all those cool colors. 02:29 What colors do you see? 02:31 Red. 02:33 Yellow. Black. 02:34 Yeah, look at that. White. 02:37 Isn't that cool? 02:38 Okay, so let's put this. 02:40 Now you know what's special about this popper? 02:44 This popcorn popper? 02:46 This is an air popper. 02:48 So we're not using oil to pop it, 02:52 so it's gonna be even healthier for us, okay? 02:56 So we're gonna turn it on. 02:58 You ready? 03:00 Yup. Oh, yeah, let's do it. 03:01 All right. 03:04 And then, Dr. Hayes, 03:06 while we're waiting for this to pop, 03:09 tell us about some of the health benefits of popcorn. 03:12 Oh, yeah, popcorn is awesome. 03:15 It's full of so many great minerals, 03:18 but even the things that are probably most exciting 03:20 is the fiber that's in it. 03:22 Well, you know, one of the great things 03:24 that we should learn about popcorn first is 03:25 how does it even pop. 03:27 What makes it pop? 03:28 Does any of the boys and girls know? 03:30 Ben, do you... Maybe it gets hot. 03:33 Okay, it gets hot, we know we need to get it hot. 03:35 Does anyone else know how popcorn pops? 03:38 Maybe the boys and girls, 03:40 I wonder if they've heard about that. 03:42 Do you know, Sophia, how does popcorn pop? 03:45 What makes it pop? 03:47 The air? 03:49 Oh, I bet you Dr. Hayes is gonna tell us. 03:52 Oh, this is so exciting. 03:54 There's a little bit of water inside of all of those kernels. 03:58 And when they get hot, 04:00 the water inside starts to get really excited 04:02 and it wants to just pop out, 04:05 and it's the exploding water inside that makes 04:08 the popcorn kernels turn inside out 04:10 and you see all the white that's inside of it. 04:12 Isn't that neat? Isn't that cool? 04:13 It's just a little bit of water, yeah. 04:15 So your heating the water inside of the popcorn. 04:17 Oh, there are so many other great things, 04:19 but that fiber that's in the popcorn, 04:22 what that does is when you eat all that popcorn, 04:25 the fiber in there helps to move all the food 04:28 through your digestive system 04:30 and you have a long digestive system, 04:33 stomach and intestines, 04:35 and all that food you eat the rest of day 04:37 needs some help getting through there, 04:38 and popcorn can really help that. 04:40 Isn't that interesting, Nicole? Yeah? 04:43 Wow, does anyone want to be a scientist when they grow up? 04:47 Oh, you want to? You want to be a scientist? 04:48 Oh, I think you'd make a good scientist. 04:50 Yeah. Do you wanna be a scientist? 04:52 No? No. 04:54 Oh, maybe I'll convince some of you guys to do that. 04:56 I want to. 04:57 Oh, excellent. You want to, Ben? 04:58 And can you tell us other nutrients in popcorn? 05:01 Oh, yes. 05:03 Some of the great nutrients that are in popcorn 05:05 include calcium and magnesium, iron, 05:09 potassium, and phosphorous. 05:12 And calcium... Does anybody know... 05:13 Have you ever heard of where you use calcium in your body? 05:16 I know, what part do you use calcium in your body? 05:19 Anybody know? 05:22 Oh, your bones. 05:24 That's right, Miss Cinda. 05:26 Your bones are made out of calcium 05:28 and phosphorus and some other things. 05:30 And so you're really giving some minerals for your bones 05:34 to grow when you eat popcorn. 05:35 Isn't that great? 05:37 Uh-huh. Yeah. 05:38 And there's some magnesium in there. 05:40 Magnesium, people don't talk too much about, 05:43 but it's an important nutrient that helps 05:45 a lot of your body's proteins and enzymes work. 05:48 And so they help to chew up the popcorn 05:50 and help get the nutrition out of your food, 05:53 so magnesium is very important, 05:54 that also helps your bones too. 05:56 Wow, this is really starting to pop. 05:58 So this is a healthy snack. 06:00 This is a wonderful healthy snack. 06:02 We like to eat in our household, 06:03 don't we, Carter? 06:05 And do you know that this Indian blend, this Indian corn, 06:09 this is non-GMO. 06:13 So those that have the celiac disease and stuff, 06:15 they can eat that. 06:17 That's right. 06:18 Look at this. That's right. 06:19 And it's low in sugar and gluten free. 06:21 These make these great snacks and foods 06:23 for everybody who has different dietary issues. 06:28 And it's low in calories. Oh, yeah. 06:30 Low in calories. Yeah. 06:32 And when you air pop it, then you have it low in fat. 06:35 That's right. And we're just gonna... 06:38 We'll show you how we just spray 06:40 a little bit of olive oil spray on it 06:43 and then our seasonings will stick to it, 06:45 you'll see that. 06:46 Look. Isn't that cool? Wow. 06:48 What do you think, Sophia? 06:49 Look in there. 06:51 Is that popping? Yeah. 06:52 Do you guys see the different colors 06:53 in the kernels? 06:55 Uh-huh. Yes. 06:56 Yeah? 06:57 I thought the black kernel maybe... 06:59 How come it doesn't turn black? 07:00 We don't see any black popcorn in there. 07:02 I see. You do? 07:05 That's 'cause the popcorn kernel turned inside out 07:08 and it's all white on the inside, all of them. 07:10 Miss Cinda, there's another popcorn kernel 07:12 that barely popped. 07:14 Oh, you know, some of them don't pop as much. 07:17 And I wonder, Dr. Hayes, 07:18 if that's because they don't have 07:20 enough moisture inside of them. 07:21 I think you're right, Miss Cinda. 07:23 They may not have had enough water in there 07:24 or they didn't get hot enough. 07:26 They kind of got moved up with the other popcorn. 07:28 It looks like it's about done. 07:29 I think it's about done. 07:32 Let's turn it over. 07:33 Oh, this is exciting. 07:35 Ooh! 07:37 I love popcorn. Me, too. 07:40 It's one of my favorite things. 07:42 Oh, wow. That is great. 07:45 I'm gonna set this right over here. 07:47 One popped again. 07:49 Yeah, it's still hot in there, 07:50 so you got to be careful, right? 07:52 When you take it off there, it's still hot, 07:54 so you wanna give it about 30 seconds. 07:55 And look, I forgot... 07:57 Yeah. Don't touch the seeds yet. 07:58 I forgot put the lid on, 07:59 and this will be hot 08:01 because those are the seeds that didn't pop. 08:03 So who wants to try some? 08:05 And then you can flavor your own. 08:09 And I've got some extra too. 08:10 Oh, okay. So I brought extra. 08:12 So hold your bowls over here. 08:17 Okay. 08:18 And then what we're gonna do is 08:24 we're gonna spray a little bit. 08:26 And maybe, Dr. Hayes, 08:27 you could spray everybody's popcorn for me? 08:29 Oh, sure. 08:31 And then so, boys and girls, 08:33 what we're gonna do is we're gonna spray it. 08:38 And now you get to choose your toppings. 08:42 So let's see. 08:44 We have regular salt. Let me spray yours. 08:49 Where is the regular salt? 08:52 Oh, we don't have regular salt. Sorry. 08:55 We have pink Himalayan salt. Isn't this pretty? 08:59 'Cause on Tiny Tot's, we like color. 09:01 That's right. 09:02 Plus, this is a really special salt. 09:04 So you've got pink Himalayan salt, 09:07 we've got nutritional yeast flakes, 09:10 and we've got McKay's instant chicken seasoning, 09:13 and it's a vegan chicken seasoning. 09:15 I love this chicken seasoning on it. 09:18 We've got hickory smoked dried torula yeast, 09:24 that's a nutritional yeast too. 09:26 And then we have a season salt. 09:29 So what would you guys like on your popcorn? 09:32 The first one that you said it was. 09:35 The Himalayan salt? The Himalayan? 09:36 Okay. Oh, that'll be fun. 09:37 Be careful 'cause the shaker, it's large holes. 09:42 What would you like on yours? 09:43 Oh, Ben! That's okay. 09:46 You might want to add some more popcorn to that. 09:48 If you shake it, the salt will go to the bottom. 09:51 Oh, that's true. Yup. 09:52 And then the salt will stay there. 09:54 What would you like on yours, Sofia? 09:55 That happened in our household a few times. 09:56 You want this one? Yeah. 09:58 Okay. 09:59 So you can take a spoon and sprinkle a little on. 10:02 What would you like, Nicole? Just need a little bit. 10:04 You want this? Okay. You just need a little. 10:07 What would you like, Carter? You want this? 10:10 Okay. Okay. 10:11 Now be really careful, you saw how it came out. 10:13 So you just wanna really gently sprinkle it. 10:16 We practice sprinkling a lot. I think he can do it. 10:19 Let's try our popcorn. Perfect, perfect. 10:22 All right. Good job. 10:24 And you know what? 10:25 You can make popcorn balls, 10:28 you can meet caramel corn, you can make kettle corn. 10:34 You know what kettle corn is? 10:36 When you're popping it, you can... 10:39 Well, you can do it on the stove. 10:40 If you pop it in the kettle on the stove, 10:43 you can pop it with a little bit of oil 10:45 and a little bit of sugar, 10:47 and it coats it with a glaze. 10:49 Yeah, that's good. Excuse me, Miss Cinda. 10:51 Could I have that? 10:52 The yeast flakes? Uh-huh. 10:53 Try your popcorn. See if you like it. 10:55 Do you want something else in yours too? 10:57 What would you like? 11:00 What would you like on yours? 11:02 The salt? Oh, yeah. 11:04 Okay, sprinkle it very carefully. 11:06 Miss Cinda, at first, I think it's gonna come out 11:09 in big chunks but then when you do it... 11:11 Oh, yeah, it doesn't. Yeah. 11:13 Did you guys try your popcorn, see if you like it? 11:15 Yeah. 11:16 What would you like to try?
