On Wednesday, Jan. 19, get buckets of refills on buttery popcorn, hot and fresh from the popper, for one price.

The all-you-can-eat popcorn deal is one day only, while supplies last, so if you are a true popcorn fan, this would be a good day to go to the movies and leep getting refills until your popcorn craving is satisfied.

The same day refill offer is valid with the purchase of any size traditional popcorn at participating locations. You must show proof of purchase to receive complimentary refills, so be sure to ask for a receipt, and hold on to it to show each time you request a refill.

History of National Popcorn Day, according to the website National Day 365

The origins of popcorn is unknown, since no one has any genuine details about the popcorn kernels. There is some information about the origins that says it was made in 400B.C.But popping corn goes way back before that, so no one knows the exact period of its origin.

The holiday of National Popcorn Day is said to be started during the Super Bowl, and  went on to be a celebration.

One of the largest popcorn production in the U.S is Nebraska, which produces popcorn more than any other state.

There are many types of popcorn. One among them is a snowflake, which is used in movie theaters. It looks big and less corn will fill the bucket and make it look full. This is the perfect snack food treat for all popcorn lovers.

At 175 degrees C, the corn pops in a microwave, and many theater owners find it the best - and profitable -snack food offerings.

Americans consume more popcorn, and it increases by 5 percent every year.

Popcorn is rich in fibers that are healthy and very low in calories.
