A favorite at every movie theater, carnival and big top,

this treat packs lots of pops.

It may at times be malted or frosted,

but plain, buttered or salted are exalted.

Best enjoyed a bit hot and fresh,

in hand for many fans at the seventh inning stretch,

when the game is on this is the snack you fetch,

only hamburgers and hot dogs at concessions get an edge.

Kettle and movie theater aficionados eat and pledge,

popcorn never sees a fridge.
